Google Calculator

Posted August 15, 2003 to Technology category.

Now, everybody has already gone on and on about the new Google built in calculator, and the fun one can have with it. The most awe inspiring thing about it is that it’s the easiest calculator I’ve ever used. You can ask it questions in english and get back answers!

It can answer questions that not only have stumped philosophers over the ages, but includes details which many have never even thought of to ask (the three teaspoons):

What’s the answer to life, the universe and everything multiplied by the speed of light divided by three teaspoons? Answer: 8.51523871 × 1014 m-2 s-1

You can also try now the Google Calculator with a keyboard at:

Try entering: 25M36T5 + 65T3

(by using the [H] [T] [M] keys.)

Any feedback or suggestions will be welcome.

Thanks!
