Why Cuil Sucks - It can't even find itself
- Zev 18y agoThat search worked for me..
- kajecounterhack 18y agono, notice that cuil.com isn't a result.
- byrneseyeview 18y agoMy #1 result was http://whois.ws/whois-com/ip-address/cuil.com/ http://whois.ws/whois-com/ip-address/cuil.com/ . They had some other whois results, too. I wonder if they realized how many people would read about it on Techcrunch, then search for Techcrunch on it to take it for a spin -- and quickly reworked the algorithm to give a higher weight to URLs.
- oxtopus 18y agoDoesn't that make sense? Before the launch, weren't they in stealth? Shouldn't it take time for the index to catch up?
- icey 18y agoDoes someone have a greasemonkey script to filter out all these stupid Cuil posts yet? We get it, Cuil sucks.
- compay 18y agoMaybe that's because it's only supposed to return relevant results. Seems to be working well here.
- tx 18y agoHow pathetic. (you, not cuil). Go and make fun of Facebook instead. It's a fucking MESSAGE BOARD WRITTEN IN PHP. At least Cuil is trying to build something not trivial and useless, facing real competition and going after real money.
- compay 18y agoAs soon as their search results aren't terrible, I'll be rooting for them. But right now it's all sizzle and no beef.
