I’ve checked it out, but it’d be hard pressed to come anywhere close to Google. ---

I saw a article on it the other day about how they went about building it and why its different from google. Kinda cool how it displays search results in little paragraphs rather than a full list. Edit: off their website, sheds some light on the subject. > The Internet has grown exponentially in the last fifteen years but search engines have not kept up—until now. Cuil searches more pages on the Web than anyone else—three times as many as Google and ten times as many as Microsoft. > > Rather than rely on superficial popularity metrics, Cuil searches for and ranks pages based on their content and relevance. When we find a page with your keywords, we stay on that page and analyze the rest of its content, its concepts, their inter-relationships and the page’s coherency. > > Then we offer you helpful choices and suggestions until you find the page you want and that you know is out there. We believe that analyzing the Web rather than our users is a more useful approach, so we don’t collect data about you and your habits, lest we are tempted to peek. With Cuil, your search history is always private. > > Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge. For knowledge, ask Cuil. ---

Heard about that a couple days ago on the news. They said it was created by some disgruntled former google employees. Definitely a sign of the times when an internet site launch is on cnn. ---

It found “pittspeed” on a search so it must be decent. 😃 I like the look of the cuil home page better than all of the others. ---

I read that part…I tried a few searches in both and google found what I was looking for and that did not. I like to judge things by results. ---

i hear you… the shear amount of uptime and indexing of google is going to be very hard to surpass… i don’t see cuil picking up big or anything, just might be nice to have another solid search engine. ---
