Latest from the press all around the globe and comments have started to pour in about new competitor to Google Search Engine. Ladies and Gentleman - Cuil is being officially launched today that boasts of 121,617,892,992 web pages indexed for it's search engine.
A first look at Cuil and it's interface is decent, plain and simple much like what Google represents with uncluttered home page. However the primary difference is in the way search results are presented. Instead of typical top to bottom list, Cuil presents search results in 2 / 3 columns. You can change the preferences if you prefer 2 columns or 3 columns display.
As of now, didn't find Ads sticking out on any search page, thus difficult to say how is the site going to generate revenue. Having said that, a big advantage if you are focussed on results and not on ads while you search.
Since no ads and only results, Cuil has done a good job to include pictures / logo as and where available or possible. This gives an even balance to text and image ratio on display and thus visually more pleasing in a way ...
How would it rate as compared to Google? Well difficult to say at this stage, there have been competitors in the past and Live and Yahoo are still trying to catch up with technology to give a decent challenge to Google, not sure if Cuil could change my view on this front.
What is Cuil?
Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge. For knowledge, ask Cuil.
Got more inputs on Cuil, feel free to post your views !!!
