Options include "Google Squared" which mines for identifiable and related
facts and presents them in a spreadsheet, Rich Snippets which gives useful
previews of results and Skymap - which (as a cell phone app) uses GPS to
see
where you are and where you are pointing to identify stars and
constellations. Neat stuff. Wish we could integrate this sort of thing into
Wikipedia, half of it probably uses data mined from the projects anyway.
