    Before that search engine kills Google. Google will kill it first. I think they will come up with that system and they will use it in Google. Money still talks and Google have all the talks.

    It's funny how every other week someone starts a thread on the fall of google. However, this one somehow raises a valid point for discussion concerning the future of search in general and how resilient to change google the search engine can be.

    However, discussing wolframalpha from the point of view of its potential supremacy as compared to google is a little too premature. In order to make conclusions, one needs a good deal of factual information.

    According to current situations it will be difficult for wolf to compete Google. But if wolf will use the correct and timely strategy then maybe it can happen. But Google will also not let go its rise easily. so wolf have to work hard to fetch top position from Google.

    You can't fail an empire if it is strong. I have read than in the early stages of Google they tried to improve the work of search engines, which had problems. So at this point you can't beat Google, because Google has no weak points.

    I think if we all put our heads together, we can create something better than google. There are a lot of good programmers and designers here at DP :) at least that is what i think.

    I have read thisarticle on Independent.Co.Uk a while ago, and I have to say I was intrigue. Can Wolframalpha outrun other competitors?...
    In every competition there's always a darkhorse, they seemly can't win but shows a decent skill and wanting to win. I don't think this could be a threat to Google, like JohnUK have said

    Lol. Google will buy wolframalpha.com and every search engine that has potential to compete with Google. Over 10 years Google will be still #1 search engine.

    They can't buy it. Wolfram is a big firm that makes a lot of good softwares such as Mathematica and so on. It is not a search engine made by my or you. It is more complicated to buy them.

    I read somewhere that they wouldn't mind being bought by google.

    Another though is that I know a lot of webmaster hate google because of the control they have, but to the general user Google is great, so they wouldn't consdier searching anywhere else.

    Well i have to check out the Wolfrom Search engine. It has to be very radical and innovative to unseat google.

    At some point, some time in every company, they fall from grace. the question is will they stay there or not?

    I agree with you all, google was once like wolf but look at it now its now the #1 search engine, yes every big site will have a competitor and wolf maybe one of them for google. Wolf may become popular and such, but google wont fall/fail just because theirs a competitor.

    Google may enhance the features of wolf, which will make google much efficient and stronger in competition. GOOGLES COMPETITION MAKES GOOGLE STRONGER ;)

    THINK ABOUT MSN SEARCH, THEY INTRODUCTED MSN EMAIL, AND NOW LOOK THEIRS GOOGLE MAIL TOO.

    I think Google will always bee a major contendor amoung the search engines, but it can be hard to hold on to a number 1 spot.
