It's a search engine for people who think "google" isn't a stupid enough name for a search engine?
He just should have called it Mathimatica 2: Electric Webagoogaloo.
I’ve been waiting patiently for Wolfram Alpha to launch, I can’t wait to test drive it!
Sadly, I get that reference.
I made that reference. Just think how sad I am.
It is strikingly fast. Just tried it.
Did Lucinda Dickey ever make any pornos?
Pity me then, I even remember that name.
What happens when it becomes self-aware?
I have to admit, I didn’t know that name, but according to Wikipedia, she got out of showbiz after 1990.
Or ask this one.... How many roads must a man walk down before you can call him a man?
If you happen to not know where you're at, it will tell you.
Then there's the age old question: Why did the chicken cross the road?

It bothers me that Holland Manners is in charge.
Suppose you wanted to know how many quarters per ounce?
You could start at Wikipedia (via Google of course – Google searches Wikipedia much more effectively than Wikipedia). So. Courtesy of Wikipedia, you now know a quarter weighs 5.670 grams (forget the troy ounces, they're for the light in the loafers). Next step: ask Google what is 1 ounce / 5.670 grams. Um. I think the answer is five quarters to the ounce.
Now try it with Wolfram.
IMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
I tried Googling my name on that thing. Piece of crap.
Whatever happened to Adolpho Quinones?
I wonder if Electric Webgoogaloo can answer that one?
Your name is a piece of crap?
