Wolfram bites back at Google
Search Engines
27 May 2009
A new search engine is trying to challenge Google's dominance of the market by giving surfers exactly what they want.
Wolfram Alpha will try to compete with the biggest search engines by analysing and comparing structured data and aiming to answer questions directly, rather than simply referring users to a list of potentially useful sites.
Stephen Wolfram, the founder of Wolfram Alpha recently wrote on his blog about the challenges the engine has faced in its first week since it launched and the improvements they intend to make.
He said: "In the few weeks before the launch of Wolfram Alpha last week, we became very conservative about changes so now we have a lot of improvements and interesting new functionality saved up that we hope to be able to roll out very shortly."
Wolfram was a computer programming prodigy who wrote a technical paper on particle physics as a teenager, received a PhD at age 20 and invented a computer programme used by scientists around the world.
