"Cuil (previously known as Cuill) has launched its brand new search engine. The California-based start-up is led by Irishman, Tom Costello, a computing graduate of Trinity College Dublin and his wife Anna Patterson, the president of Cuil and former Google employee. Cuil’s new search engine is the first product to be seriously touted as representing plausible competition to Google. Cuil sets itself apart from the traditional search engine by not just searching for keywords on a page it is about to index – it also scans the rest of the page’s text for more context and relevance. The example the company gave on the official site is the word ‘jaguar’ – it said Cuil will return more relevant results for the user based on determining from the main text whether the jaguar in question is the cat, car or operating system".
I checked it out, and I'm sticking with Google for now!
