Just Another Cuil Review.

Seems like everyone is blogging about Cuil these days, and I think I’ll join in on this bandwagon. Cuil is a brand new search engine that was designed by some ex-google employees (as far as I understand).

The concept is basically to present search results in a pseudo-magazine type format to give you a better idea of what it actually on each page, and also give you a list of subjects you might have been looking for.

Go ahead. Try it out. I’ll wait.

Finished? Well you may have noticed you got either exactly what you were searching for, or a bunch of sites that weren’t even close.

I actually do like the concept. Especially the list of relevant subjects to refine your search, could be potentially really useful. It would be, that is, if it actually worked.

Don’t believe me? Try searching for “Cuil” using the search engine. Just try it. These were the top five subject results that I got:

1. Towns and Villages in Sligo
2. French Cuisine
3. French Breads
4. Lochaber
5. Gems of Scotland

If you are not listed on your own search engine, then you have problems.

EDIT: Seems like they have changed it since the time this was posted. Notice how they don't list any of the negetive reviews of the site?
