- trezor 17y agoWhile this is true to a certain extent, it only becomes true once search results are good enough to no longer be the deciding factor. Even if cuil had a mobile version which magically doubled the screensize and gave me a magical flip out keyboard, it still would be a bad way to locate information.
- whughes 17y agoI'd argue that search results trump many of these. The UIs (including mobile UIs) of most search engines these days are virtually identical, although maybe slightly flashier in some cases. No Cuil here. If a search engine offers better results but is a little slower, then that's an advantage over having to flip through pages in a faster search engine.
