I haven't (yet) had the chance to really dig into the relevancy/scope of Cuil's search results, or to compare them with Google, etc. But I have seen similar reactions to what you express. See, for example: Cuil shows us how not to launch a search engine By Rafe Needleman http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10000670-2.html -- Michael Zimmer, PhD Assistant Professor, School of Information Studies Associate, Center for Information Policy Research University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee e: zimmerm () uwm edu w: www.michaelzimmer.org On Jul 28, 2008, at 5:59 PM, David Farber wrote:

Hello Dr. Zimmer. A question... You focused on a very specific and what may become a most critical issue for all search engines. Privacy. I spent, made a good effort, rather, to spend a bit of time on CUIL. I found it quintessentially opposite to their intent. Unwieldy, over broad, nearly paralytic in detail and lacking in intuitive process. Is my visit premature, along the lines of expecting good things from a restaurant on an opening night?
