Google’s next-killer?

Posted by jeanc on Aug 01 2008 | Industry News

Yesterday, 28th July a new search engine was launched called Cuil.
The company claims that their search engine is the worlds biggest, having even more indexed pages that Google and Microsoft Live.

Much of the team responsible behind the creation and design of Cuil are ex-Google employees but the look-and-feel as well as functioning of the site unlike Google.

The ads on the site are on the left-hand side of the page, with a larger description text but still resembling the same format as used Google and Microsoft. When searching it provides more results at face, with similar search matches across a tab and well as categories to break down your search. The site is very responsive and quick but may be overwhelming to those used to Google’s minimalistic search engine.

The launch didn’t go completely as planned with various mishaps such as some popular search terms returning no results or an intermittent service.

Only time tell if this can complete and overtake Google to be the next-Google killer.
