CUIL, the new search engine, should Google be shaking in its boots ? - Page 3 - GoFuckYourself.com

blizzent · 07-29-2008, 12:57 PM

It's cute but the search results suck and the servers keep crashing. Slap a beta tag on that badboy! Isn't that the web2.0 thing to do.

This pretty much sums it up -

Free Porn Search - Google versus Cuil

I guess they better go back to the drawing board

kelly kola · 07-29-2008, 01:20 PM

Definitely something only time will tell on! The reason it could be taking longer to launch is that they're ironing out the kinks before letting it out!! Until then... Google's it!! It will be interesting to see though.

I take it you didn't watch the video? Their problems are a bit more serious than ironing out a few "kinks"...

If Live.com couldn't do it. Why would this?

Kevsh · 07-29-2008, 01:30 PM

So far, I'm not impressed. Don't like the layout - from a usability perspective it's schizo for the eyes, so to speak. The results I got for a few searches were brutal, not even close to what I was looking for.

An example, "mojave os". Microsoft's fake new OS that's actually Vista, designed as a marketing ploy for beta testers. On Cuil almost all of the results were foreign-language - many from Argentina, Brazil, etc. and not one remotely relevant. On Google, the first page was almost entirely links to stories and articles about the OS and story behind it.

This search engine launch should not have gotten 1/100th of the press it did get

xmas13 · 07-29-2008, 02:43 PM

Too bad their site sucks, what a waste of free advertising.

IMHO the most interesting, albeit of questionable viability, search engine other than Google is http://www.MsDewey.com.

Don't know about Ms. Dewey but those are some nice sites - just signed up.

Would like to promote Mila if you have any promo content for her.

One thing I noticed about this new Search Engine, is that NONE of my sites are listed there.

horrible results!

st0ned · 07-29-2008, 09:22 PM

Hmm that is interesting. I wonder how their algo works, none of my google ranked sites are showing for their terms.

st0ned · 07-29-2008, 09:24 PM

Yeah after screwing around with it for a bit, I am not a fan.

lmao do a search on the keyword ho lol the bitch just went off on me

ro8in · 07-30-2008, 02:16 AM

How can I sue them?? I just got a headache from their multi column search results.. Setting it from 3 to 2 columns didnt make it any better.. Also I have now RSI from moving my mouse all the way to the bottom of the site to switch to the next search results page. And staring for an hour (it took me this long to find a link i was looking for) at the black with white contrast just made my eyes gone bad.

My prediction is that this one goes in history as one of the bigger .com investment failures... So better sue now before they run dry..

halfpint · 07-30-2008, 02:20 AM

Some of my site are listed on it

Drake · 07-30-2008, 02:46 AM

They certainly have an uphill battle. Time will tell.
