The search engine has had some thing going on all this time before it spilt out that it had signed a deal with Bing. Though Wolfram Alpha hasn’t really made huge leaps in terms of progress compared to the ever growing popularity of Bing, the search engine does provide better results for queries that involved computational. Now if we take Bing, it gives results for almost anything you are searching and in a different way for different categories of search, but then Microsoft had more than a $100 Million to invest in its advertising alone. But I guess there is plenty of room for this deal to grow if only Wolfram Alpha steadies it growth amongst users and do something about the quacked results it sometimes throws on users.

I have skipped putting in the Power Tower notation. I have duly updated the post and hope there aren't any other shortcomings. And though you can compute those from another page, the direct link doesn't provide you with results. Thanks for pointing that out and my apology for posting the incomplete work.

That's not true. You should check what you assert before you post it. http://www.google.com/search?q=2^6&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a “For example if you search for an item let’s say 2^6, Google would provide you varying results , from a direct answer to places where it has been used and more often visited.”
