Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

New search engine Wolfram Alpha fails to find Harringay

I saw a piece about Wolfram Alhpa on last night's C4 news and thought I'd give it a go. The idea is that is is "intelligent" and attempts to build a page that actually give you the information you want rather than a list of links to pages where you might find the information.

So what to search for when testing ? Well "Harringay" of course, which it fails to find.

In the parlance of Silicon Valley types, this is a FAIL.

Results are "Related searches - Herring", indeed!!

Some consolation that a search on Haringey is similarly fruitless and offers the related search of "harlingen". Clearly Wolfram is ultra-Alpha right now.
Doesn't find Camden either, oh, it does if you live in New Jersey Camden or Australian Camden #fail
I heard a piece on the radio about this this morning and one of the journalists made the point that it is VERY US focused...
