A new search engine? Cuil!

Looks pretty cool. I like the Main page. Black looks good.

Searching is pretty good as well, I like the layout of everything. Another thing that i like is that it gives you a decent sized chunk of description when i search. :cool:
 
lol
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.

:D Was working 10 mins ago. Its not a bad search engine, apart from the latest problem. I have used Google since i can remember, but i wouldnt mind using Cuil aswell. I really like the layout of it all. It makes a nice change.

Go back to Google, folks. Nothing to see here. :o
 
I like the look of the new one, much more information given to you without having to pile through pages to find it.

We didn’t find any results for “Google”

Some reasons might be...

  • a typo. Please check your spelling.
  • your search includes a term that is very rare. Try to find a more common substitute.
  • too many search terms. Please try fewer terms.
Finally, try to think of different words to describe your search.

Heh. Heh. :D :D

Edit: Upon further messing about, I do think I like the layout. Just needs to get these kinks worked out with server capacity or whatever is causing the odd results and website errors to show up.

Not overly impressed on a first look, the layout is relatively clear and it is nice to have the extensive descriptions but the pictures are a bit hit and miss (not necessarily all their fault) and more importantly you've apparantly got to put the description in a set order or it won't work. For instance "cheap dual core laptops" (without the quotation marks) won't work but "cheap laptops dual core" will work - not good having to work your phrasing to fit with their preconceived idea of phrases rather than working on the basis of individual words since I may never choose to order my words in the way they want rendering the whole thing useless to me.
 
i've changed my mind, just used it properly for the first time

We didn’t find any results for “East Midlands Airport Hotels”

edit: bug alert - clicked search again and results appeared!
 
Seems pretty rubbish, even get no results for some search terms.
searching for "ocuk forum" doesn't even show this place on the first page.

edit: as above, hitting search again shows some results, I guess they are just bringing it back online bit by bit. Still, ocuk forum shows other websites and not this one.
