Wolfram Alpha

This is a new Search Engine i recently heard about. It’s similar to Google, but based on mathematic and statistic search method. I think it’s official release happens this Monday. (very slow at the moment). See how it works here

Beside the fact that we actually don’t know where the information is coming from, except from “very reliable sources”, I think it has the potential to become a useful tool, especially for diagramming. The question raised last week, if Google will still exist in 2049 isn’t answered but it’s a possible new direction.
The best part: cheddar cheese total calories*golden gate bridge length/melbourne population =0.089 m Cal/person (meter dietary Calories per person).
