AP: Cuil challenges Google
Post Date: Aug 4, 2008

A start-up called Cuil is mounting a challenge to Google's dominance of the Internet search business, said Michael Liedtke in the Associated Press. Processing its first search requests this week, Cuil (pronounced "cool") claims to search more Internet pages than Google does, while presenting results in a more usable form. "Cuil is hoping to attract traffic by promising not to retain information about its users' search histories or surfing patterns -- something that Google does, much to the consternation of privacy watchdogs."

      Cuil is an Irish word. Just thought I'd let you know.

          Oddly enough, I've been working a lot with Celtic mythology recently, so I already knew that. :P
