Re: new search engine .......Cuil.com
Urrrgggghhhh, doesn't render well on a mobile,

search results are rubbish too, I have an issue at work (which I do know the solution to, java namespace config issue) that I thought I'd fire at it to see how it goes, not one 'hit' on the first page, whereas google had 4 pages before I got a false hit.

It just depends. I have had a prolonged period of not quite so much waffling as have had lots of offline things going on over the past few months. Also on Sunday I will be going away for 3 weeks so even if I get good laptop reception I am likely not to spend as much time online. I'll probably make up for that when we get back though.
