I haven't heard much of Cuil lately. How is the search market share???
Microsoft's Bing is probably getting way more searches than Cuil.
Is too early to say RIP Cuil???

I caught Cuil parsing without a user agent the other day and promptly shot an email off to them about it.
Cuil's bot is called Twiceler by the way .. and it parses quite a bit, but I think the parse might somehow be disconnected from the index because the results for various terms in their "cluster" index have been the same for months.
I think Cuil would do well to just start over. They have the infrastructure to put on a good search, but they are grossly lacking in the ability department.
