With the decision of the Prime Minister of October 28, 2020 to ban events that serve entertainment and leisure throughout Germany in November, the Amiga Meeting 2020 is unfortunately not feasible and must therefore be canceled. We hope for a better 2021.

We plan to meet online on Discord on Saturday, November 7th, 2020 from 1pm.

You know whats most funny when browsing Wolfram Alpha or such databases, just following the links inside it, sadly the API does not give infomations for links in the text. BUT it supplies related searches, I implemented an additional page to AYA that you can find close searches, sometimes there are even some weird stuff… maybe they are searches other user used? I don’t know.

Besides that I implemented a history of your searches and also added some suggestions sorted in categories, some starting points what to search. Also if you find something funny (like the people curves e.g. “Arnold Schwarzenegger curve” and so on) why not share them with other.
