Wolfram Alpha

If you are into math or science at ALL, you need to be familiar with WolframAlpha. More than a search engine, WolframAlpha calculates the answers to math or science questions, creates plots, converts units, efficiently accesses scientific data and statitistics, and lots more. It took me awhile to get used to it because it is different than a regular search engine, but it is very, very useful.

WolframAlpha also has some unexpected breadth. I enjoyed floating around in the Wolfram Demonstrations Project. I doubt I'll ever get my mind around all that WolframAlpha offers, but I plan to enjoy trying. (MHouse)
