Wolfram|Alpha Launch: The "Go Live" Moment

Stephen Wolfram brings Wolfram|Alpha online, making the computational knowledge engine available to the public for the first time. Wolfram|Alpha is available at: http://www.wolframalpha.com/

Wolfram|Alpha's long-term goal is to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable and accessible to everyone. The company aims to collect and curate all objective data; implement every known model, method, and algorithm; and make it possible to compute whatever can be computed about anything. Wolfram|Alpha builds on the achievements of science, and other systematizations of knowledge, to provide a single source that can be relied on by everyone for definitive answers to factual queries. Wolfram|Alpha was created with Mathematica—itself the result of more than 20 years of development at Wolfram Research—and is being developed by a world-class team of experts led by Stephen Wolfram, a distinguished scientist, inventor, author, and business leader.
