A new engine for knowledge presentation and searching was released and wow. I'm impressed.
Queries like "positition of Jupiter at 23:00 tonight" are quite enlightening. http://www22.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=jup...t+23:00+tonight Molecular comparisons http://www22.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=caffeine+vs+sand Weather forecasts http://www22.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=will+it+rain+today%3F Fun, fun, fun I love how the information is presented. Check it out if you can!! If you find some interesting results maybe post them here. -------------------- Turn the middle side topwise....TOPWISE!!

I'll start getting interested when I see the start of the Wolfram Alpha Lunar X Prize.

Here's an article about Wolfram Alpha that shows both its good and bad sides:
http://www.smh.com.au/news/technology/bizt...1894098345.html And here's the URL to go to Wolfram Alpha dircctly: http://www.wolframalpha.com/index.html -------------------- I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse; therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed.
