yawn.

Why the hell is this site making headlines on every site? Their search is unimpressive and not warranting this kind of reporting.

fine be a one dimensional google whore!

perhaps others may find it an interesting read, and a nice alternative to our google overlords.

The fact that it is ad free is interesting, the fact that it looks beyond wikipedia as its main search source is interesting, the fact that there are currently no sponsored ads is interesting.

What exactly do you find unimpressive about their search? Back up your statements with actual opinions instead of assholish arrogance pls.

kthx

The fact that it's ad free just shows that:

A) it wont last
B) they can't get any advertisers, but if they could, they'd put ads on it

Also, what's with the immediate hostility? Did your best friend make this thing? Who cares?

Instead of assuming it's my job to point out the site's deficiencies, why not point out it's positives?

Do a simple search and you'll see all that you need to:

[ www.cuil.com ]

#1 Result: [ www.sjk.co.jp ]

What the fuck kind of garbage is that? [ rave.ca ] isn't even in the results. Not a single page. Instead you get some bullshit MFA crap.

The immediate hostility is well i think masa summed it up perfectly.

I post an article saying interesting read, and all you do is shit on it without backin your claims

Fair enough you backed up your claims, doesn't make the article any less interesting.

The article is a regurgitation of cuil's press release. I've seen it on the frontpage of CNN, reuters, digg, reddit, wired.. and now [ rave.ca ]

I hate it when non-stories get massive publicity given the quality of the product being talked about.

You also made it sound like using google makes you a chump.

Alternatives and change is good, but replacing a functioning tool with a broken one makes you the chump.

Anything to do with Google WILL UNDOUBTEDLY get mass media attention. Yes, that includes digg, reddit, wired, and considering the amount of info being posted on this site (notably by you), [ rave.ca ]

I may have my devil's advocate hat on backwards, but perhaps you're just pissed 'cuz you weren't the OP?

Personally, I'll keep on using google, but it's indeed nice that there are alternatives.

I'm more annoyed that I keep getting bombarded with this non-story is more like it.

Heh, I don't go around saying the stories you post are trash, though I could. See where I'm going with this?

Masa-opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one.

So I linked to the [ rave.ca ] search on cuil here is the result:

"We’ll be back soon...
Due to overwhelming interest, our Cuil servers are running a bit hot right now. The search engine is momentarily unavailable as we add more capacity.

Thanks for your patience."

Same crap here. I'll stick with Google, thank you. I WILL check it out when it works but I'm not a huge fan of search engines of the " ... momentarily unavailable " kind.

Altavista DOES find sh*t google can't find.

Recommended by a few university teachers, but then again the word "google" appears often in lectures.
