Cuil – cool search engine
Thanks to Ciscotips blog post, today I discovered Cuil search engine (Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge). Cuil is a web search engine with the world’s biggest Web page database (so far it has indexed over 120 billion Web pages).
“… Cuil searches more pages on the Web than anyone else—three times as many as Google and ten times as many as Microsoft. Rather than rely on superficial popularity metrics, Cuil searches for and ranks pages based on their content and relevance. When we find a page with your keywords, we stay on that page and analyze the rest of its content, its concepts, their inter-relationships and the page’s coherency.”
It has some nice features:
- Drilldown
- Roll-over definitions
- Tabs
- Navigation suggestion
People behind this search engine worked for Google.
