Wolfram|Alpha is launching tonight. It looks to be another step forward in Search. Billed by Wolfram as the “computational knowledge engine” the reviews so far are good. You can watch a powerful screencast showing the power of Alpha here.

The launch does not mean Alpha is a Google killer as many have written, but rather a step forward in our ability to tap vast amounts of data in new ways. I’m looking forward to utilizing the power of Alpha.
