I was reading December Issue of Popular Science-100 Best Innovations Of The Year(which is awesome by the way) and this search engine was in it if any one is interested. Artical says it presents the answers in text,graphs,table,charts or maps. It also says it can generally answer anything that calls for computing or referencing trusted facts, whether from physics, finance or football. It uses Mathematica, the computational software Stephen Wolfram built 20 years ago.

Haven't tried it yet myself. Only had time to post this before work is over.(I mostly don't have much to do at work, so I go on this site.

I use that web site to check my home work all the time. Its only down fall is: the in-put method is crude in comparison to the complexity of out-put(s) presented.
It needs some flash buttons, or text recognition capability to make the in-put method more like writing on a piece of paper; and not like typing in a search on Google.
Yes wonderful site, despite its infancy.
