new search engine poised to compete with Google?


07/30/2008 update: The reviews are in, and they aren't too favorable. See TechSmith's article, How to Lose Your Cuil 20 Seconds after Launch.

Ex-Google employee Anna Patterson has started her own search engine, Cuil. According to CNN, Patterson sold important search technology to Google in 2004, but has no interest in selling Cuil. She believes the new search engine indexes more web pages than Google does, but Google disputes this. Unquestionably, Cuil's presentation of search results, which utilizes a magazine-like multicolumn layout, is very different from Google's.

I'm really not a fan. Its results are not as high quality as Google's and the display system makes it hard to quickly find the result you're looking for.

Try again, please, Cuil.
