Should Google Worry?

This site doesn't seem to do search at all, so no at this point they have nothing to worry about. Almost every search I have tried it says 'Wolfram|Alpha isn't sure what to do with your input.' If I search my name it tells me the distance between two cities Gary, Indiana and a city/town in Bavaria. Huh.

I think Google will retain its power for a few reasons:
1: its big and popular NOW
2: its name is easier to say and remember (biggie. doesn't seem like it but...)
3: Its working on more things than a search engine.

This 'trinket' of a site may be of interest to a few academics but... It won't rival Google. As a repository for reference material, it appears to be useful. To see what I mean, enter the name of a small, obscure town. I used 'Fredericton' and it displayed some interesting geo/socio data.

But beyond that, I can use my Blackberry to do metric conversions.

Google will be the dominating force in the search engine market for a very long time to come, we hear every few months of a new "google killer" search engine but this is always just marketing spin from some small start-up looking to fleece greedy investors that want a piece of the google pie.

I agree

and I give 2nd place to Yahoo.

The main reason I don't like Yahoo is because of their mess of a homepage. And all pages in general. Google keeps it clean, simple, and easy to navigate. I have used Yahoo for a few things, and it is near worthless.
Just my opinion.
