Wolfram Alpha Makes Public Debut

Apr 28, 2009 at 7:35pm ET by Matt McGee

The highly anticipated Wolfram Alpha search engine made its debut today, although Google tossed in a little spoiler.

The webcast was apparently difficult for some to view, but you can get impressions of what happened from Between The Lines and Bits.

The site also has a new blog and Twitter account, and we’ll be looking at it more closely in the near future ourselves.

There’s more discussion on Techmeme.

Postscript: See Impressive: The Wolfram Alpha “Fact Engine”, our review of the service.
