Jane came across a very interesting website today. Wolfram|Alpha's long-term goal is to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable and accessible to everyone. So if I type in my name, Michelle, the website returns some statistics surrounding my name. Apparently, the most common age for my name, Michelle, is 41. This is an interesting attempt towards universal knowledge sharing. Let's see how this type of site compares to hunch.com or facebook's questions feature.
