Google, Yahoo and MSN.com (and many others like before) have been dominating the search markets.
But how often are the search results close to what you are looking for or even relevant?
A group of former Google employees are setting up their own search engine called Cuil.com (pronouced “cool”). Anna Patterson was one of the main programmers who helped design and build the search giant’s system, including the indexing process.
I tried to go in today but they need to upgrade their servers as the capacity had overloaded already.
If this new search engine has legs, I think it will erode Yahoo and MSN’s market share more than Google’s. Only time will tell.
UPDATE: It seems after I posted this entry, I was able to try out the search engine.
Ok.. well, I’m not sure about how relevant the search results are.. but I got this feeling its very skewed to US based entries for now.. maybe after a longer time, the engine will include .sg based sites more.
The results are not your usual scroll down display manner, they are more column based. Too early for me to say if this is my preferred method of displaying the results.. but it does look different.
Try it out and leave your comments!
