A tool for those interested in music theory

I came across this nifty website today while doing some classwork. I'm finding it quite useful for analyzing chord structures and such. So, I thought I'd pass it along to those who might find it useful. Here's an example of how you can use it:

I use Wolfram to count calories. You can put in something like "2.5 blueberry muffins" and it'll make a full nutrition chart.

Anyway, didn't know you could use it this way. It'll even play the chord out, nice..

Ooh, another fun trick is to type in something like "640Hz square wave" and listen. It'll do any type of wave.

Wolfram Alpha is a general mathematics and physics database that has a lot of random stuff in it now. It does populations, mathematics, integrals, and all sorts of other crazy stuff.

If you use Siri many of the questions are processed through Wolfram Alpha.

That's pretty cool. So you could ask it "How many flats are in Ab?" and it'd be able to tell you it has four?
