I actually like Cuil’s website layout better. The colors are a bit harsh but I could get used to it.I think the failure occured at the actual searches.The main difference between Google and Cuil is that Cuil doesn’t measure CTR, because CTR infringes on your privacy in a way. Cuil wanted to be the search engine of a new era – ethical searching perhaps. The problem is that CTR shows the psychology behind every search – what you actually searched for instead of what spammed its way to the top.Cuil will have to find a replacement for this without infringing on peoples privacy. I think it can be done, and I believe cuil does have a future as a google competitor. Hopefully they will figure it out soon.
