Cuil.com, since its inception proves to be the direct challenger of Google.com. Based on the news, Cuil.com has been established in July 2008 and since then have indexed more than 12 billion pages. The founder of Cuil.com which is pronounced as “cool” is no other than Ms. Anna Patterson who was an employee and lead architect of the Google team from 2004 to 2006.

One key different of the Cuil.com made about Google is that cuil.com does not record your search history. Here is the direct quote “We believe that analyzing the Web rather than our users is a more useful approach, so we don’t collect data about you and your habits, lest we are tempted to peek. With Cuil, your search history is always private,” says the company.
