Very cool search toy

This probably shouldn't go in this forum but I think a lot of people will like it. I came across a search engine which seems to collate information from a variety of sources and then present it - it must do it on the fly!

Check it out Qwiki

P.s. some people are hailing it as "the future of search". It's not - it's a novelty, but it's a damn good novelty!

    I saw this one several days ago... They in beta testing now, but you can ask for invite. I've got mine... Service looks pretty nice at first, but you should know that its nothing but wolfram alpha search + wikipedia search + pictures search + AT&T Text-To-Speach engine + some basic animations. Piece of cake

      yea, they pull together a few tools to create it - i'm surprised it has not been done before.
