Have you heard about the new search engine created by ex-Googlers?

Its called Cuil - pronouced Cool - from the old Irish word, meaning Knowledge.

Its - well, its a search engine.  Has some neat features - I very much like the layout of search results and the tabs that help merge search with navigation.  Will all this be enough to pull me away from Google?  I don’t know.

I have such a love / hate relationship with Google, so it is hard to tell.  They have great stuff, but they are also extremely liberal in nature.  How liberal?  The last reported numbers that I could find had 98% of all political donations going to the Democrats.

Do I really want to use / enrich / endorse a company that is so blatantly anti-conservative?  Not really.

I guess I will try Cuil for a while and see how it goes…
