What do former Google Engineers did after they left the seach giant? Started building a better search engine. Introducing, Cuil (http://www.cuil.com).

If you got used with Google’s white website interface, Cuil sports an elegant black styled layout, and boasts a whooping 121,617,892,992 web pages indexed (Google only has 25,000,000,000++ web pages indexed). To test its capabilities, it searched using my favorite keyword, “bobreyes”. Too bad, the first result does not point to bobreyes.com, but it is still related to me. Next try, “turfsite”. Same frustration, did not show turfsiteph.net as the first entry in the search results.

I guess, I will wait for their “crawlers” to visit my websites fully first, before I opt to change my home page from Google to Cuil.
