Cuil Vanity Search

Blog Add comments

Okay, let’s take a look at this new search engine sensation called “Cuil”. Nobody likes it. Everyone’s calling it junk. You can’t even SPELL Cuil without messing up the first few times! The real important thing is how well it performs my vanity search. First, though, let’s look at Google’s results. Click on any of the photos to see them full-size

Google

6 answers on the front page, including the first entry, are actually me. They’re all relevant to what I’m doing nowadays. Now, let’s see Yahoo.

Yahoo turned up with 6 entries for me on the front page. 3 of them definitely aren’t relative to what I do regularly, though. Now, let’s see how Cuil is doing…

In Cuil, none of the categories are about me. There is my explore.twitter.com page (which no one even ever uses for ANYBODY). There is my Twittervision page, useless. Then there are 4 Twitter posts from months ago. So Cuil actually does tie with Google and Yahoo. in how many entries show up for me. However, it loses, because there is not a single post that is relevant to me. No one would ever need to know any of these sites. Cuil is officially a dumb search engine. My rating, 0.
