Now I am not sure if Cuil is trying to become the next google, or if its just some guy who built a search engine on his spare time, but I do know they are not ready for launch. There is no reason for them to not be able to handle the load, and their results are just terrible. Frankly I am upset that if someone searches for my company, we are represented the way we are (see above post). We work hard to create a brand, and I wouldn't want someone searching for our name on Cuil and find this image to represent our poker room. If you are going to launch a search engine nowadays, you better have a ton of funding and launch with a ton more to your site then just a search engine. End rant, thanks for reading Markus!

Recent trends where the new Google "knols" are outranking other established sites, show a weakness in Google and where there is a weakness there is a door opening for another.
