    This has nothing to do with Google.

    Wolfram is pretty cool if you search for facts or math stuff.

    But it has some factual errors still.

    Apparently I was born on the same day as Fernando Valenzuela.....

    I also asked about one of the movies in my DVDcollection, "Sleeping Dogs". It picked the correct movie and that Warren Oates was in it. (Movie buffs might know him as "Sgt. Hulka" in "Stripes".)

    you are still wrong. it's not a search engine, it's more of a online computational engine

    Sounds like something from the venus projet(google it, or watch "zietgiest addendum"), this could prove interesting.
