WolframAlpha - launches today!

Less than an hour to go . . .
 
It's LIVE!

Just had a quick play. Still some big gaps in its knowledge (it doesn't know what Nikon or Canon are... how thick is that!) but maybe that's not really its bag.

I just typed in the word 'weather' (like in the webcast) and it knew where I was and gave me a local forecast straight away. I typed in 'star chart' and it gave me a graphic of the sky (positions of sun, moon and stars) as seen from where I am. Cooool!

It's HERE if anyone wants to play.

Well I tried "weather" and got Leeds / Bradford
Missed me by quite a few miles
But its still a cool resource having had a quick flick through :thumbs:
 
i got told the weather for leeds as well, very useful....

:lol: I must be just lucky that I live near Leeds! It is early days though so I guess we should cut them some slack.

It must be busy... I'm having trouble getting on it now, guess it's best in the morning before America wakes up!
 
I just put "weather" and my location and got the nearest weather station
so its not all bad :D
 
Crazy stuff. That's incredibly clever.
