computational knowledge engine. Start by entering your birthdate and see what happens. It is a "cloud computing platform for numerical computation & visualization of data. Numerous vertical apps possible." Also try entering your first or last name.
Basically turns anything that you can alligator clip to into a computer interface. Created by two grade students at MIT who started a website looking for $25,000 investment and now have $386,000 after just 11 days. For $35 definitely getting one of these!
Two brilliant high school chemistry teachers have completely switched the lecture at school/homework at home paradigm.
