Cuil, a new Irish-termed search engine, is out in public. They claim they’re a different kind of search engine — well, at least in background color.
Rather than rely on superficial popularity metrics, Cuil searches for and ranks pages based on their content and relevance. When we find a page with your keywords, we stay on that page and analyze the rest of its content, its concepts, their inter-relationships and the page’s coherency.
So far, search is fast and relevant. Nice addition with the topic tab for grouping relevance and multi-column so you don’t scroll much. Cuil boasts of over 121 Billion web pages indexed.
They look promising especially when two of the founders were former architect of Google’s large search index, TeraGoogle, that launched in early 2006.
Ah, nice my blog is indexed! :D
