Cuil is a new search engine out there, it is pretty neat, ahen you type in something to search, it will give you other woords to add. Like if you search RuneScape it will give you a long list of this that go with RS.

After you search something, it will list a page of site for it, but it will have a picture for each one.

Anyways check it out

www.cuil.com

Call me childish but i put "***" in to see what it would suggest and it didn't suggest any other words. XD

I'll stick with google, easier to find the sites I'm looking for i think. :P

I saw this in some other forum (Don't remember which one).
It needs more work. I find it a bit slow while searching.

I'll stick with the good old g00gl3 for now.

Saw it on Digg, so I had to check it out.

Interesting layout, but I prefer the simplicity of Google. Plus, when you search for Cuil on Cuil, it doesn't find anything pertaining to the site, at least the last time I checked.

I personally think it is too slow, also on a search for 'rsbandb' it brings up Shane's blog first, rsbandb.com is like the 6th result.

On a search for 'runescape' it brings up runescape.com first, then wikipedia's entry and then a bunch of gold selling sites.

A search for 'cuil' does bring back cuil.com as first result now.

A search for 'microsoft' brings back office 2007 first instead of microsoft.com.

Amazingly enough ubuntu.com is the first result for 'ubuntu'.

Cuil only has two preference options and you cannot set how many results you want per page.

They also don't have a news, image, or video search, they can't even think about beating Google without these other searches.

A Kid asked Jesus, "How much do you love me?" and Jesus said. "This much."
And spread his arms out on the cross and died.
If you believe that he did this for you put this in your signature.
