Wolfram Alpha Does Genealogy (Sort Of)

Understanding family relationships and connections can be so complex. How do you, for instance, refer to your cousin’s son? Well, type in “cousin’s son” in Wolfram Alpha, and you’ll see the ouput in graphical display: a genealogical, family tree. What’s more, W | A will inform you that your cousin’s son = 1st cousin once removed. See W | A’s blog post for a better explanation and demonstration.
