I think they look great. My only question is do we want them a little 
bigger?

That's my one question. While on the small buttons it is clearly 
impractical, here it might be possible to put in a url. Question how one 
would do that in a way that would with the design. Obvious thing would b 
to create a little more space along the bottom and insert the url there. 
(just underneath 'KNOWLEDGE' or all the way along).

I think this is basically it. The only question is given the that 'open 
knowledge' is fairly generic do we want a url in there somewhere?
