5 of the best Google alternatives – Wolfram Alpha

wolframalpha.com
Wolfram Alpha isn't a search engine. It's a computation engine. Ask it for facts, scientific formulae, equation answers or any kind of statistics and you will receive quick, accurate results. Ask it a deep philosophical question and it might be stumped (although it does know that the meaning of life is 42).

Not a complete Google replacement but an absolute winner if you need facts. The only data they collect is not personally identifiable, unless you voluntarily give it to them.

    Siri uses WolframAlpha as far as I know! That's how it's able to respond to real life questions...that's the WolframAlpha approach.

    Anyways, I'm ok with Google sharing my activity with its other services, the more it knows how I use a particular product, the better it would be for me.
