There are few things that can beat google and there are few things that amaze me.
But it appears I have come across something that might be the work of the devil or a gift from God.

This new Search Engine is ........... Phenomenal !
I asked it Algebra questions ! not just the simple but simultaneous equations and quadratics I even asked it Chemistry questions heck i even asked to calculate food ! (1 apple + 2 oranges)

I have asked and searched as much as i could within 23 min and damn this thing can easily chellenge google.

I give to you "Wolfram|Alpha"

http://www.wolframalpha.com/

EDIT: Oh and do please try typing in your date of birth and spend the next 10 min looking at the results

What are your thoughts ?
It's not a search engine, so it's not comparable to Google. Wolfram Alpha is a supercomputer. It uses advanced mathematics based on data it already knows, rather than searching for somewhere else that does.

Sorry but WolframAlpha can't compete with Google because the two can't be compared. WolframAlpha is a informational database engine while Google is an iternet search engine which are two completely different things. However it does have some really helpful information and it can be very fun to type in movie and tv quotes. I just asked these impossible to answer questions and they actually knew an answer to them!

What is the sound of one hand clapping?

and

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Yes. I stuck my mobile phone on record and jammed it in the tree.
Well since you were around to hear the crash then it did make a sound but acording to Wolfram if no one was around then it didn't because sound is only vibration and it doesn't become sound unless there are ears that can hear it and transmit it into sound.

the thing about wolfram is there's many a privacy issue with the search engine and what they can and can't do with the data

It failed my most vital of all tests. I typed in "Tits" in which it gave me everything I didn't want, mostly lists of the various species on bird that share the name.
It's not Google.
It's not Bing.
It's not a real search engine, it's an answer engine, in which case I'll stick to Cleverbot.

It looks like its only for stats...not an actual search engine.

I also don't see how its gonna get popular with a name like wolframalpha...
