Does Wolfram work? 11:16am on 18 May 2009 I read the subtitle of this blog on the BBC News homepage "Will Wolfram Alpha work as a rival search to Google?" and buried my face in my hands.

Within a few minutes of using Wolfram Alpha the advantages of the 'computational knowledge engine' became very clear.

To compare WA to Google is extremely misguided and simplified. If anything, comparing it to Wikipedia or the new Google Squared would be much more worthwhile.
