Bing and WolfRam and quiz questions
There are new search engines out there that try to answer simple questions. So what better way to test them than to serve them some random trivia question?
Wolfram will not get most of the questions asked, but make valid suggestions to alternatives or categories to explore. For some questions Wolfram does get, you just get the answer, as you should.
Bing is the new search engine from Microsoft. It gives links, but good ones. From the newspaper I had seen it can also give targetted results, but maybe not yet in this part of the world.
It will be interesting to see when these new sementic search engines can solve trivia questions :-).
