Google's Direct Competition

www.cuil.com, pronounced "cool", is built by the same person that designed Google's engine. Looks as if they took it offline as there has been a massive influx of users wanting to test it out.
 
Ummmmm, I guess you haven't seen the overwhelming insults that have rained their way since release, for example:

here, here, here, etc...Just saying it might be a little early to call it "competition".
 
Hey not my words, that's what Time said. Personally, it hasn't shown to be that great of a search engine.

Oh and Fluffy...ummmm...why does the first link have two guys jackin off on each other?

Apparently they're partying on their VC money like it's 1999. I give them six months, then they'll be a small also-ran with three employees. If they're lucky.

Because that is what Cuil responds to you with if you make a search on quantum computing. The creators claim that when a server goes down, and that server is supposed to supply a thumbnail photo of what you were searching for and it doesn't, the Cuil engine just picks another photo and displays that instead. (As opposed to just not displaying a photo, which y'know, would have made a lot more sense).

As for the random photo being gay porn, fuck I just thought you were one of the new Cuil hires, Timi? No? Too bad.

Agreed.

It does show one thing though, making a good search engine is not nearly as easy as Google makes it look.

Nope, but Gomi said he's a Cuil die hard now.
