I think a lot of people are eager to see someone encroach Google the way Google-circa-1998 threatened the then giants of its time. The fact they are ex-Google search employees implies they know what they are doing, so out of all the possible search engines Cuil seems the most promising. But of course, the only real reason they all wrote about it was because the other guy was doing a story on them. How silly would they look in 5 years if they didn't cover the next Google?
