New search engine


A newcomer to the search world - Cuil - claims to index three times as many pages as Google does, and also has a different and interesting way of presenting results. I haven't had much of a chance to play around with this yet, but it will be interesting to see if it can even make a dent in Google's search supremacy. It does have some pretty nifty features, including suggested search terms (these appear as soon as you start typing). And check out the results page--it looks more like a page of database results than a search engine.
