Better than Google?

Have you seen this?

Its a new search engine.

Apparently, this was created by two ex-Google employees and they are allegedly the “world’s biggest search engine”. It claims to monitor more pages (three times more…) than Google and (ten times more….) than MSN.

I can't help but think about the betamax vs VHS battle that raged in the 80s.

Betamax was the better technology - it should have won the video tape race.

But VHS had massive marketing and technology partners behind it (and was quicker to market). So it won the race.

Another reason was thet you couldnt get porn on Betamax...

I have a sneaking feeling that Cuil may go the same way... appart from the porn bit...
