If you haven’t been to Wolfram Alpha yet, you need to give it a try. For all that Google is, Wolfram Alpha has a place on the web. This “engine” is likely the biggest change we have seen since the rise of Wikipedia. Wolfram Alpha will take hold in a way that Cuill.com wished it could have. Remember Cuill?? Big PR, with an also ran product! Wolfram Alpha should spread like wildfire with word of mouth like you are reading here.
Mix Answers with Google with WikiPedia with Google Sets and you have some sense of what Wolfram Alpha brings.

I anticipate this being a very popular site. Perhaps not the next Google, but certainly a player in the “search” space. We are often querying for specific information. WolframAlpha brings that to us and offers up additional data sets to add flavor to what I am after.
Give me a Wolfram Alpha iPhone App and I will be a walking information station!
