It is called WolframAlpha and it is a computational knowledge engine. I don't know what any of that means, but it sounds really cool. Have any of the nerdlier of you nerds tried it out yet? I know I've been playing with it for a couple of days. Fascinating stuff for the inner geek in all of us.
It was launched on Friday, so one of the creepier searches/questions you can ask it is "How old are you?" It will answer a specific number of days, down to 3 decimal points, from when it was launched/became aware. Or just simply say "hello" to it. It will respond with a chilling "Hello, human".

Or ask it the meaning of life. It will tell you. The answer is 42, of course, but you knew that already. Well, the nerdlier nerds amongst you knew that already. Right, Slyde?
Perhaps the funniest/creepiest feature of WolframAlpha is the error message that it uses when it exceeds it's maximum test load.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
