Cuil a massive search engine which has been launched today.It claims to have indexed over 120 billion pages.Cuil was founded by highly respected search experts. Husband and wife team Tom Costello (CEO) and Anna Patterson were joined by Russell Power. Patterson and Power are also ex-Google employees, and the company has been the subject of intense speculation over the last couple of years.

Cuil claims to have better search results then Google. It also claims to be 10 times faster and cut down the indexing cost by 10 times that of Google.But is it really ? When we searched for the our company name Indiandevs which has been recently built then we got no Result.When we searched for labnol , a famous blog by Amit Agarawal which has a page rank of 6 by google we got no result.Although when we did the same with Digital Inspiration we got the first result as labnol.org .
Although Cuil has some better things too.When we searched for computers,we were presented with related terms and also links to some Famous computer companies.You can also have results based on categories.

Cuil also says that they will put user privacy at the top of their business objectives. User IP addresses are not recorded to their servers, they say, and cookies are not used to associate a computer with queries. The data is simply dumped as it is created.
