The command line strikes back.

I've been thinking about command lines for this unit I'm involved with. The idea was to show that command lines as an interface are not 'dead' just revised. Google was the obvious choice but wolframalpha is new and the video is quite impressive ( well I'm an engineer by background and habitually quantative ) . I think this is the first example of sematnic web doing something interesting.
