    Does Ajax auto-suggest for similar questions not work for anybody but myself? I tried copying and pasting this title into the Ask Question page and that question shows up as the third result (mine comes up first). – BoltClock Jul 14 '11 at 12:44

It's not a quick "type it up for the internet" answer. There was a nice hour-long lecture about it at WWDC 2011 that was dense with information.

Suffice it to say that the next step in compiler technology and code analysis is at the heart of how it works.
