Do Wolfram|Alpha Users Ever Go To Sleep?

May 18, 2009

It’s 3am on the East Coast and we can see from the sampling of our geoIP data that plenty of people are awake and using Wolfram|Alpha. Here’s a sample of 5 seconds on the map:

Europe is just starting to wake up on a Monday morning and our query rate is starting to climb.

    You have two web usability errors on your home page. The search bar is missing a function identifier. Needs the word “Search” placed within the bar. This will guide users to the start point immediately, while acting as a call-to-action. And you are using an unfamiliar symbol as the search ‘go’ button. This will slow down a users understanding of how the search function is used. Better to use an arrow within a rectangular button shape. Using the ‘GO’ also helps. Otherwise, your site and product are amazing!!

    According to The West Australian, Woldfram|Alpha is a search engine for web pages.
    I quote (from memory) from the article “While Google can tell you the closest Pizza place, Wolfram Alpha can tell you where to get the best pizza.”

    *Sigh*

    If only I’ve had all this, this is Disney Land for science, congratulations, congratulations.
