I am not very impressed with Cuil. I like the 3 column format, but everytime I do a search it comes back with errors. I think they have a server issue or something.

Thanks,

I used them for an academic search and was very impressed with the results. OK - this is not the kind of search everyone needs, but for those struggling to find material for an essay this site is, uh?, cool.....
It gave prominence to the more credible sites, very easy to read.

There is a new search engine. The new visual search engine, it is only for kids.

Unfortunately, the results seem a little wonky.

I typed in our library name "Madison-Jefferson County Public Library" and received no results -- even though it offered our library name as a suggested search. I took out the word "public" and there we were.

I'll reserve judgment for now, but very odd.
