Wolfram Alpha - The Next Big thing!!

Wolfram Alpha was launched recently to the public . The goal of this service is to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable and accessible to everyone , and thats precisely what it does . Wolfram Alpha gives answers to your questions . After playing with it for a while , you would realize that it is similar to a certain feature of google search but in a much more advanced way . Its results are far more precise and graphical making it very easy for the end user .
Wolfram Alpha has a lot of applications . You can use it for getting information on almost everything . By information i mean mainly statistics , facts , figures etc . Its not exactly a search engine . I guess you would come to know its actual use once you start using it . I played around with this service for some time and i must say its pretty good . Although it doesnt quite answer EVERYTHING . Probably because its just released , i guess you need to give it some time . So here are a few things that i tried :

1)TIME IN WASHINGTON

2)WEATHER IN BANGALORE


3)IBM and APPLE comparison

4)when was bill gates born

5)who is george washington


6)population in bangalore

7)where is iraq


8)September 24, 1971


9)1 horse power in watts


10)pizza



Pretty cool right , I must say the information it provides is fantastic!!

FINAL WORDS
So on the whole , i must say wolfram alpha is an awesome innovation . I guess it would take time for them to improve and provide more statistics and information . But this can be tough , understandable. Gathering so much information can take time . But i must say , its a fabulous service , there is no limitation to its application . I see a great future in wolfram alpha!!
