  Okay, so it's not quite Friday yet, but close enough...

  Wolfram Alpha http://www.wolframalpha.com/ is a general-purpose,
natural-language knowledge retrieval system.  You know, one of those
things where you're supposed to be able to ask a question like you
would a fellow human, and get back a useful response.  It just went
live a little while ago.

  Go ask it: Are you Skynet?

  Then ask it to open the pod bay doors.

  It also knows the meaning of life, and the amount of wood a
woodchuck can chuck, and quite a few other things.  Much of the
Internet has apparently spent quite a bit of time looking for easter
eggs.
