Ex-Googlers Create ‘Cuil’, TTB Finds New Line Of Business
Author: Rees | Date: July 28, 2008
So I was reading about Cuil, the new search engine created by some ex-Google engineers, and I thought I’d do a test search for the term “Team Teabag”. Here’s the top match that came up - and yes, it does link to our site.
Is Cuil suggesting a new line of work that perhaps TTB should get into? Looks like a bit of an epic fail to me, especially as the other results seem to have random descriptions and images associated with them. A shame really, as this looks like it could be an interesting project and they’ve gone and made a bad first impression on me.
Also, “Cuil” reminds me of the French word for “leather” - “cuir”.
…Which is pronounced “queer”.
At least I didn’t find any gay porn (NSFW, if they take a dim view of gay porn in your workplace).
