Progression of the Iconic Background
Description
MSR recently released an "entity search and summarization engine" that in short builds a dynamic wikipedia page for the entity or person you search for. The types of information you'll find include biographies, a social-network graph, relationships between people (mouse over the link to see how they are connected), and titles of people.
