|
|
I tried cuil the first day it came out and found it... well, to be blunt, not incredibly great. It didn't find much of anything I searched for, sometimes saying there were no results for incredibly common things like "ship" or showing ludicrously unrelated pages. I wondered if they were doing any better now so I gave it a few example queries to see what would pop up and compared it to google.
cockatiel = cuil gave me the American Cockatiel Society, cockatiel.com, and a couple other cockatiel related sites. However, one of the pictures shows an African Grey parrot next to the ACS website!
google gave me similar sites, plus the wikipedia entry on cockatiels. Google loves the wikipedia. The only picture it showed was of a cockatiel singing the legend of zelda theme song (strange, but relevant).
slashdot = Both sites gave me links to slashdot.org and a bunch of the subsections, like apple and politics. However, google also gave me the wikipedia link.
angel unix catharsis minimalist = This deliberately nonsensical list of words brought back no results on cuil, but 629 on google. Some of them even made some sort of sense, e.g. "minimalist fonts by Angel".
So it looks like google is still better than cuil, IMHO. Any thoughts? _________________ Dubai Hotel Deals |

I checked it out. Results not even comparable with G or Y. Just neglected it. But have to appreciate the efforts of those guys. _________________ tiny laptop |

Cuil is not that competitive to google, yahoo and msn, but it has potential of going further. Look at it's PR. _________________ Free Sprint Ringtones |
