I agree. I don't see how it could work so nicely for everything. Though it seems that he picked a specific category (Mathematica) which helps quite a lot on what to do with the query.
Take the example with the first names: "Andrew", then "Andrew John" (or whatever it was) which compares the two names over the years. What happens if I type "Elton John" now?
The screencast was impressive but I'd like to try it by myself (which should be soon apparently) to realize how powerful it can be.
- misuba 17y agoThat everpresent "Mathematica" blurb on the screens doesn't represent any kind of site category, I don't think; the whole site is driven by Mathematica behind the scenes. The Mathematica link often visible looks like it goes to some sort of representation of that behind-the-scenes stuff, but that's just a guess.
- Timothee 17y agoOh ok, thanks for the info. Since I saw a big list of categories at the end of the screencast and remembered that "Mathematica" was there all along, I figured there was something to it. I just have a hard time believing that that kind of results can be achieved without more information than the keywords.
