[serious] Wolfram Alpha - as important as Google?

[kleinma]

I tend to agree that it can't be done.. at least not in the way the guy makes it sound anyway...

I mean sure, I can see something that can answer factual simple one point questions.. that doesn't even seem very "Revolutionary" to me.. if I type in "speed of light" in google, it gives it to me before any search results...

However if I were to type

"How do I use a delegate in VB.NET for thread safe UI updates?"

Do I really thing its going to give me a good answer??? nope..
