The site is up now and includes wikipedia content.

For example, try this query:

Ok, that makes it much clearer.

Another thing that I found annoying is the 'please wait' screen. It plays around with my mouse cursor and gives me a 'forbidden' (circle with a slash) rather than the proper hourglass/waiting cursor that is appropriate for this situation. You might consider canning the 'please wait' bit entirely, or make it less prominent.

Too complex. I saw that, and I thought - too much information at once.
