Yesterday a new search engine, Cuil, was launched with much fanfare. It was promoted as a “Google killer” created by founders who’s previous company was sold to Google for its search technology. The site had huge problems with the load created by the launch hype and the search results are nothing short of craptacular. I thought I’d give it a go by searching for myself. On the other major search engines this returns a link to my blog while on Cruil it links to LinkedIn, a previous employer and random posts I’ve made around the web but not to my blog.

Today I heard that if you search for “cuil” you don’t even get a link for the search engine itself. I guess next time they’ll try opening it up for beta testing first…
