Some former Google employees escaped from the Googleplex and have opened up their own shop named Cuil (pronounced “cool.”)
Motley Fool says that there are some things in favor of Cuil:
Cuil reportedly looks through more pages on the web than does Google meaning that you might find something someone searching Google might not — three times more pages than Google and 10 times more than Microsoft’s search engine are indexed by Cuil.
Also, Cuil doesn’t keep track of what you’re searching for — everyone searches for some silly stuff on the net, but it isn’t cool when someone figures out you’re looking for strange items on the web.
I’m with Motley Fool’s prediction that Cuil — if it is all that it says it is — will end up being snapped up by Microsoft or Yahoo or maybe even Google itself.
