About This Page: This is a discussion on Reality Hipcheck within the LetsGoKings.com forums, at Los Angeles Kings Hockey Fan Forum. Former Google engineers started Cuil (pronounced "cool") this morning to compete with Google.
I tried it for a while this morning... not impressed.
What are YOUR results?
It's 11:45 PST and its down, I get the following , "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete."
Great debut!

I used it to run a few searches... Nothing spectacular - I like Google better. At least thus far, it doesn't appear you can do searches of images, video, etc.

They were talking about it this morning on the news. Apparantly it's not finished yet. I guess they're just getting the name out there for now but if it ain't done, then why do so? You're just turning people off that way.

What's the point of another effing search engine? What's some unpronouncable late-comer supposed to do for me that Yahoo, Google, and Ask can't already do?

I figure if you can't beat them, join them.
Ju'st u'se an apo'strophe before every letter 's in every 'single word. Maybe 'some of the'se fool's will realize how 'stupid that i's.
i like how it displays results, when it actually does display them, other than that it isnt anything special. it will take alot more than what they are offering now to compete with google though, thats for sure.

That's really a major issue now. How are you really going to gain market share? They mention your concern below:
Google has become so synonymous with Internet search that it may no longer matter how good Cuil or any other challenger is, said Gartner Inc. analyst Allen Weiner.
"Search has become as much about branding as anything else," Weiner said. "I doubt [Cuil] will be keeping anyone at Google awake at night."
