thats pretty sweet but it looks like they have a ways to go before they get it all good and all the bugs out but it does seem like it has a lot of potential though i like the tabs

Agreed. I like the fact that they don't keep search logs.

although cuil has something to offer, looks like it still has a few kinks it needs to work out

i think that it's just taking a lot of heat because it's different and not like all of the other search engines out there i kinda like how things are shown in the frames it is just a bit confussing at first but i think that once they make the seaching part a little better and people get more used to it, it should be up there with google and the others quick. lots of potential just a couple fixes first.

i think you're right, jack, when google was started, a lot of people didn't really dive in to use it, a lot of people still used their search engines (i only remember using yahoo! before). but personally, with cuil, i'm not a big fan of the frames right now, maybe i'll still wait it out and see what happens with it.
