New 'cool' Search Engine

[Randy]

https://www.cuil.com/ (pronounced 'cool'). Apparently, the folks that created this also had something to do with the technology behind Google (not all of it, some of it).

Didn't work well for me. I tried "Rostra Global Cruise" (I had just told someone to Google it to find some info). And it came up with zero results found. I put the same string in Google and hit it immediately with all the right results. Hard to beat Google IMHO.

And now it says

We’ll be back soon...Due to overwhelming interest, our Cuil servers are running a bit hot right now. The search engine is momentarily unavailable as we add more capacity.

Thanks for your patience.

interesting...i typed 'rostra global cruise' and got 47 results. i typed 'Rostra Global Cruise' and got 51 results. Oh well. Not perfect, just an alternative.
