nonick Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Isn't it obvious that Google will never be beaten. People in everyday life say "Google it". A better search engine will never change that. Do you think that will remain so ? I bet you've said the same when IE had 98% usage.

Guest Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 It's pretty terrible, actually. The top few results for "diablo 3" all return 404's.

Pretend Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 This is horrible, no way will it beat or even challenge google. Well at least in my opinion.

Boktai1000 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Its ok, right now theres no denying Google's still on top but let them iron out some stuff and Cuil will actually be a viable search engine.

anonymous_user Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Bah, the search engine needs work and IMO I think displaying images makes results load a bit slower.

1759 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I searched a couple different things, and it wasn't even returning accurate hits. Well, Google wasn't built in a day either, but I'm not impressed so far.

Ayepecks Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Not impressed. All these "Google killers" are really making the search results too complicated and they don't send back very good results. We just want what we're searching for, not a whole lot more. Reminds me of Viewzi (think that's how it's spelled). They want to take on Google but it's just too much overkill.

WhoTheF Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 C'mon. What happened to intelligence, people? How many of you still think Google is destructible?

NienorGT Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 This thing just plain Fail... It add images to link but they are unrelated. Some categories are also unrelated. I don't how this thing can be "cool". Google must laugh out to the ex-google employees in this.

primexx Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 (edited) the search engine is total fail, the results suck and are hard to skim. edit: you know the search engine sucks when it can't find itself but google can.

zerologic Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I don't like the way search results are presented :/ That's my biggest problem with Cuil too. I also find the name very forgettable.

Zoom7000 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Crap search engine, but so are most of them, including Google. What makes you say Google is crap? Do you have a better search engine that you would recommend? Just curious...

Pupik Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 What makes you say Google is crap? Do you have a better search engine that you would recommend? Just curious... live.com does a better job.
