Remember that old Maxell ad with the guy getting his head practically blown off by the music? That's how my brain felt while I watched this demonstration of WolframAlpha, the new Google-killer. Set aside 13 minutes and 23 seconds sometime today and watch. Really. Holy crap.
OMG....It is going to take me a long time to digest what I just witnessed.
Though I do wonder what this means for our children.

ZOMG. I feel like Lisa Simpson at Nerd Camp!
You can watch the official launch of WolframAlpha today, May 15, beginning at 7 p.m. CDT:

I love the look of Team Wolfram, thinning hair, unfashionable eyewear, and all. So nice to see serious grown-ups in charge. A refreshing change from the callow frat boys running many tech endeavors.
