New search engine Cuil is the brainchild of a team with wide experience with Google and other search engines:
Anna Patterson: worked on Google’s search index
Russell Power: worked on Google’s search index
Louis Monier: founder of the AltaVista search engine
Tom Costello: worked on IBM’s WebFountain project.

Cuil is another wanna-be challenger to Google and here’s where they claim an edge of difference:

1. Cuil claims to have a bigger index than Google with 121,617,892,992 web pages listed. Cuil says this will help you get relevant results for topics that aren’t very popular.

2. Cuil doesn’t give popularity as high a weighting in search results especially for complex searches.
If Cuil’s concept of indexing succeeds, PageRank and linking might be a thing of the past.

According to their website, Cuil tries to analyze the content of web pages and to put it into a greater context.

3. Cuil new results page format returns the results in three columns along with images to the search when possible. Cuil also offers roll-over definitions and offers ideas to refine your search.

4. Cuil does not log any personally identifiable information. IP addresses, names or cookies are not stored.

If you fell uneasy about your info being published, like AOL did in August 2006, or forcibly shared, like Google has to do to Viacom, then Cuil looks after you better.

Better Search Results?
Whether Cuil gives you better search results depends upon what you’re after.

When I searched under Internet marketing and used Cuil’s Article Marketing suggestion option, the front page results returned one or two sites like and majon.com that I might expect to be there, but didn’t include a site like ezinearticles.com (what would Christopher Knight say about that?). I would expect a major player like ezinearticles to be on the first page instead of some of the other results that came up like articles.dovada.com.au with an Alexa rank of 1,353,566.

Some lucky, site owners, ranked low by Google, could get a Cuil windfall if the new search engine takes off.

Cuil does recognize different shades of meaning for a search term . For example, if you search for “tiger” then Cuil will return results for the animation, the operating system with that name, the golf player and companies with that word in the name on the first result page.

A Google killer? Google is not that easy to knock over. See how Google has responded to being outranked by Cuil on the number of web pages listed.

Do good

Clusty search engine clusty.com is a step up in search convenience from Google.

Rather than the democratic type ranking that Google uses i.e. the best sites to match your keyword are those most visited, Clusty uses a language analysis program to also bring up sites that are relevant because of similar meaning.

For example the keyword SEO produces the usual list of websites plus a a cluster list of suggested related search terms.
