Cuil The New Search Engine

New search engine is out called Cuil (pronounced cool, but coooiiiL already sunk in my mind). Cuil currently has 121,617,892,992 web pages in its index and was founded by foremost authorities in search.

  • Tom Costello of IBM’s WebFountain project
  • Anna Patterson
  • Russell Power of Google’s TeraGoogle project, Google’s massive search index.
  • Former AltaVista founder Louis Monier

New Display Format

Cuil

There are 9 results per page, with long descriptions and images.

On the right side you can search by category which are related search queries. Cuil is smart enough to give suggestions such as “anchor text”, “Vanessa Fox”, and “cloaking” for the term “search engine optimization. Under Category “Consultants”, Cuil identified foremost authorities Danny Sullivan, Aaron Wall and Bruce Clay.

Tabs below the search box are exact categories as the ones described above, but this time clicking on one brings up actual search results.

Surprisingly another test search for “president” did not return any results.

Cuil vs Google

Can it be Google rival?

There are 3 more contendants to beat before Google.

  • Ask.com at ~4%
  • Microsoft at ~8%
  • Yahoo at ~15%

Cuil has to beat those fellas first.

Google Came At a Special Time

Google came along at a very special time, as I’ve long written. It had better technology at a time when all the search engines had abandoned improving search, since that was seen as a loss leader. The money was in portal features. - Danny Sullivan

Search sucked back when Google had a solution. People wanted quality and Google happened to offer it.

Today quality is not an issue. Anyone can discover quality websites through 4 search leaders. Quality isn’t something people look for anymore, it’s something people expect and take for granted.

Funny Internet Jokes

This is a continuation of the funny week posts.

Source

Customer: “I think I’ve broken my computer! There’s a message across the screen that says: ‘It is now safe to turn off your PC.’ WHAT SHOULD I DO?!?!”

I’ve done my time in tech support and have managed to live through some very weird calls, but this one was the best. An older lady bought a brand new desktop system with all the extras and had been using it for about a month when she got an error about an “illegal function.” She took apart the whole system down to the hard drive and hid it in different parts of her house, called us, and wanted to know how much longer she had until the police were going to come get her. Needless to say, we spent a lot of time on the phone putting the system back together.

I work for a nationwide ISP, doing overnight technical support. A man who had immigrated from Croatia called to ask us, in his thick eastern European accent, mind you, why we were kicking him offline.

  • Customer: “Why do you guys keep kicking me offline?”
  • Tech Support: “Can you hold on a moment while I look at your account logs?”
  • Customer: “Sure, but please hurry.”
  • Tech Support: “Ok.” … “Hi, thanks for holding. It looks like our servers are reporting that either your modem is hanging up like a normal disconnect, or the connection is just being lost. This is usually attributed to line noise. I’d advise you get in touch with–”
  • Customer: “No, that is not what it is!”
  • Tech Support: “Well, that would normally be the first place I’d look. The modems are just losing touch with each–”
  • Customer: “All right. Apparently they do not tell you everything there. What I’m trying to look at are some Croatian newspapers to keep up with what’s going on in my old country. The government did not like me when I was there and they do not like me being in touch with my family and events there today.”
  • Tech Support: “Sir, the government there cannot disconnect you from the Internet here. You are in the United St–”
  • Customer: “My government was very powerful. They can do lots of things you would never imagine.”
  • Tech Support: “I’m sure in Croatia, the government would have the power to disconnect you from the Internet. The service providers are under their jurisdiction there. However, in America, there is nothing they could do to force our computers to knock you off line. You’re safe. I’m telling you, the first and foremost place I’d look is the telephone company to have them do what’s called a ‘data grade check’–”
  • Customer: “No, no, no. That is alright. I just wanted to know if you were doing it intentionally, or if it was them. Thank you. Thank you. Have a good night.”

Customer: “Excuse me, there is an empty-folder virus on my disk.”

  • Customer: “Hi, I’d like to buy a virus.”
  • Me: “You really don’t want a virus on your computer. What you need is anti-virus software.”
  • Customer: “No, my son told me I need a virus, and that’s what I’d like.”
  • Me: “No worries. You don’t need to buy a virus — you can just connect to the internet and download one.”
  • Customer: “Hi, um, my printer smells funny, and it’s smoking.”
  • Me: “Did you turn it off?”
  • Customer: “Well, no, I was told never to turn it off without running it through shutdown, and it won’t go through shutdown.”
  • Me: “How much RAM do you have?”
  • Friend: “Not that much; I own an old computer. I guess about 4 gigabytes.”
  • Me: “Uhuh, and what kind of CPU?”
  • Friend: “32 megabytes.”
  • Customer: “How much will 16K of conventional memory cost?”
  • Customer: “I can’t get online.”
  • Tech Support: “Can you be more specific?”
  • Customer: “It says, ‘Bad username/password’.”
  • Tech Support: “What is your username?”
  • Customer: “Are you sure that the Internet isn’t closed for the night?”
  • Customer: “The Internet is running too slow. Could you reboot it please?”
  • Tech Support: “Well, just go to [URL].”
  • Customer: “How do I do that?”
  • Tech Support: “Type it in in your web browser.”
  • Customer: “Huh?”
  • Tech Support: “Ok…sir…do you have Internet access?”
  • Customer: “Huh? No. No Internet. I don’t even have a computer.”
  • Tech Support: “Ok, sir, you need a computer and an Internet account to access web sites.”
  • Customer: “Oh. Well, it didn’t say that when I mailed in the membership card. I want my money back.
