WolframAlpha


A new kid is coming to town. And it is going to be big. Bigger than Google.
And it is called WolframApha.

What it is you may ask? Simply put, it is an electronic brain, that can answer you questions. I mean answer your questions! Like in using natural language.
Google uses keywords that you typed in the search engine and compared it with the huge databases that it has.

Wolfram:


Wolfram Alpha is a system for computing the answers to questions. To accomplish this it uses built-in models of fields of knowledge, complete with data and algorithms, that represent real-world knowledge.

For example, it contains formal models of much of what we know about science — massive amounts of data about various physical laws and properties, as well as data about the physical world.
