Google Squared looks like an interesting tool.

“Google Squared is a search tool that helps you quickly build a collection of facts from the Web for any topic you specify.

• Facts about your topic are organized as a table of items and attributes (we call them "Squares" for fun).
• Customize these Squares to see just the items and attributes you’re interested in.
• See the websites that served as sources for the information in your Square.
• Save and share Squares with others.”

There’s some interesting results. I searched for ‘programming languages’.

It displays a list of languages, a picture of the language, a description, and what it was influenced by.

I was very surprised to see the Miranda language (apparently influenced by Haskell). Try it yourself: scroll down to Miranda. I must take a closer look at this one!

Another one that might get you excited is Limbo. Scroll down and take a look (but be careful if you’re at work!!). Apparently influenced from Stackless Python. I’d say more like alcohol!
