Cuil Is Cool – Try It

cuil Cuil is a search engine (pronounced "cool"). Yeah, I know, everyone uses Google, right? Well now you've got something else. It may not be as expansive as Google as far as scope is concerned, but the way in which Cuil works is actually pretty darned cool - and functional.

Here's a search for PCMech using Cuil. I like this far better than the way Google shows search results. It's cleaner, easier to find stuff, you'll see images (nice touch) and results are shown in a grid instead of a scroll-for-years typical Google result.

Bear in mind Cuil is very new and still in the process of indexing, but I guarantee you'll like it.

And can you imagine a home page even less sparse than Google's. Cuil is it. It's simple. And simple is good.
