Our knowledge addition interfaces allow users to add knowledge on any subject into our knowledge base which is then immediately available for our system to use to answer questions.
Although users have successfully added large quantities of useful knowledge, the number one topic of the feedback we've been receiving is how frustrating/slow/confusing etc. our knowledge addition interfaces were. We have been listening, and today are announcing the immediate availability of our new knowledge addition interfaces.
We've tried to make them as quick, easy and generally as pleasant to use as possible, but we know we can still do better so would really appreciate all the feedback you have to offer.
Recently we passed 100,000 user added facts so we are really excited to see what users can do with these vastly improved tools. We hope you like what we've done and thank you for helping True Knowledge grow and improve by entering so much interesting knowledge.
If you want to try out the new interfaces login here and click 'add knowledge' (or if you don't have an account you can sign-up here).
Very interesting... it made "knowledge" very easy to add. (Though I couldn't always figure out where to get to the new interface versus the old interface.)

Thanks for the feedback Jed and great to meet you yesterday at OpenCoffee (great work setting that up: http://www.meetup.com/CambridgeOpenCoffee/ ).
We found a couple of entry points to add knowledge that were still pointing to the old add knowledge interface. These should now be fixed (or will be fixed imminently).
The only place you should be able to reach the old add knowledge interface is by clicking the buttons in the advanced section at the bottom of:
