As you may know, there is a new search tool on the block; Wolfram/Alpha. First released May 15, this search tool is still in its fledgling stages, but many are looking to Wolfram as a viable alternative to Google.
It's not a search engine. Though widely compared to Google, Wolfram/Alpha does not try to match queries against a list of indexed documents. It attempts to compute answers to questions based on established facts.
To help understand this site, check out the range of examples they've posted. As you click through the examples, there is a description of the type of search that can be conducted in the search box based on the topic you have chosen. This is a great way to help users to learn the most appropriate use of the tool and the proper syntax for searches.
