WolframAlpha combineren met Firefox om te Googlen

Dat is iets waar je op kunt wachten met Open Source ;)

Leuk om na installatie te zoeken op 'global minimum d66' (of gewoon 'd66').

Iets over 'non-simply connected space', voor de leken in hogere sferen.

(ChattahBox)—A handy new add-on to Mozilla’s Firefox browser merges the
brainy Wolfram Alpha search engine to your Google search engine. When
performing a search, results from Wolfram Alpha’s search engine appear on
the side of your Google page.

This add-on is a great way to combine your more pedestrian, every-day
searches with the more intellectual Wolfram Alpha search engine that
actually answers questions and solves problems. Google on the other hand,
spits out pages of search results that require you to scan through the
pages and links.

The addition of Wolfram Alpha to a Google search doesn’t slow down the
search process and offers a complimentary enhancement to your searches. If
your job requires extensive research or you just like surfing the web for
arcane material, Firefox’s Wolfram Alpha add-on is worth a try.

(Update: A commenter asked for a link to the Wolfram Alpha add-on. Here it
is: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12006

The add-on is still experimental, but so far has worked great. If you want
to add your two cents about an experimental add-on, you need to register
with the Mozilla add-on site. )
