Lifehacker - Search Wolfram Alpha from the Firefox Search Box - Firefox. By now, you have been playing around with Wolfram Alpha, and are impressed with its ability to search databases, and make computational results available over the net. Now, you can add the new search capability to your Firefox search box. If, like me, you use Google for most searches, you can even add Wolfram/Alpha to your Google searches by downloading the Add-On from the experimental add-ons list. Just click
Tools/Addons, and search Wolfram. Both add-ons will appear. With the second, any Google search will now search Wolfram/Alpha simultaneously, and the results will display on a split screen. The Add-Ons are certainly a good reason to switch to Firefox, if you haven't already. Legal research will certainly be more interesting, now that natural language computational searching is possible.
