There
is a new search engine around the corner called 'Cuil' There are many
search engines already craving to be the next Google and there are
many more that are jumping into this bandwagon. So whats so special
about Cuil. Well Cuil's team features quite a number of Google
alumni, but comparisons with Google's search are inevitable. In
several tests, however, Cuil performed nowhere near as well as
Google.

The
Page is simple just with a search box and a Cuil logo. The
backgraound is black and Cuil takes a very different approach to
displaying its results. Instead of a list, it displays results in
three columns (though you can switch to a two-column view as well).
Intuitively, it would seem that the most important results would be
in the top left corner, but Cuil does not make this explicit. The top
right spot is reserved for related searches, which usually displays
either five or ten main suggestions and then, on mouse-over, slides
open and reveals a more detailed selection.

Cuil
prominently features its related searches, both in the box on the top
right, as well as in a bar right underneath the search box. Overall,
these seem to work surprisingly well. Thanks to the ability to
quickly go down two levels of related searches, this function works
better than the similar features in Yahoo Search, Ask, and Live
Search, though they are not as extensive as the related searches on
Clusty. Google tested a layout with prominently featured related
searches last year, but hasn't made it a default feature.
