''Quamut'' is a collection of how-to guides launched in March 2008 by the bookstore chain Barnes & Noble. The core line of guides are all editorially written but there is also a section of user-contributed wiki guides. ''Quamut'' is the Latin for "how-to" and is pronounced ''kwómut''. Like its competitors Google Knol, Squidoo, and WikiAnswers, it generates revenue by the placement of relevant advertisement using Google's AdSense program. Additionally, ''Quamut'' guides are sold online as PDFs, and a selection are available for purchase as laminated charts in Barnes & Noble stores and from bn.com. In August, 2009 Barnes & Noble shut down ''Quamut'', though the (print charts continue to be available ). ==References== *(Wikipedia vs. the World ) By Rick Aristotle Munarriz, March 31, 2008, The Motley Fool.
