Nimble, in quotes.

The menubar client is every bit as intuitive as the web interface, meaning, it’s easy to use and even if you aren’t quite sure what you’re asking, there’s a good chance Wolfram Alpha will figure it out.

In addition to the results of conventional computing tasks, Nimble can also show you the graphs of functions using the scientific search engine, provide data series, historical weather information and answers to pretty simple questions such as: “What’s the world’s population?”.
