From the Math Forum at Drexel, this is a good site for kids who have homework questions they can't figure out.
Search the web for data, visualize it on an attractive
graph, and share it with the world. According to the website, Graphwise is the
first search engine to focus on crawling the web exclusively for numerical data.
A search engine that wanders the web for looking tables so you can find
numerical data in seconds rather than combing the web for days. Graphwise is a
fully functional beta release.
