Looks like Wolfram alpha inside Google, no ?

I think Wolfram Alpha is more about stats and raw numbers and such. This is more about semantic search and identifying what a word means and what attributes people are assigning to it.

More like DuckDuckGo if you ask me.

More like Metaweb, the technology this is based off of (purchased by Google in 2010).

To me it looks like Facebook's Open Graph

Finally Google is moving in the right direction. There is still a lot more they can do with semantic search. For example, wouldn't it be great to see the related topics in a concept map, have meanings and history right there, but also let people curate this knowledge graph.

Check out InstaGrok. It does something like that- http://www.instagrok.com/

Ok, this is much cooler than spew (I mean spyw).

Thanks Google - I'm looking forward to having relevance in my search again!
