This wiki has been set up by Richard Allaway, Natasha Winnard and Jim Williams to support the publication of the IB Diploma Programme Geography subject guide, released in December 2008 for first teaching September 2009. It has been developed in conjunction with the curriculum team responsible for Geography, based in IB Cardiff, UK.

" think it's pretty safe to say that almost everyone on the Internet these days has heard of Wolfram|Alpha, the "computational knowledge engine". It's a pretty fascinating, not to mention handy, website. You simply type in your query, "population of Argentina in 1980" for example, and Wolfram|Alpha spits out the answer. What could be more awesome?!
Well, what if I told you that Wolfram|Alpha also makes desktop PC and mobile applications that, for all of the notoriety that their's websites received, I've hardly ever heard anyone talk about? And what if I told you that most of these apps were specifically designed with certain subjects in mind, such as statistics, geography, and chemistry? I don't know about you, but I'd be intrigued!"
