Cool on cuil

Like so many others I tried the new search engine, cuil. Like the egotist I am, I searched my name. Here's what I got. I'm the third one down in the left-hand column.

Like so many others, I'm not impressed.

I don't know him. He's handsome enough, I suppose, but looks he just cuiled himself and pulled up a photo of me. Besides that, the link to me is correct, but the post featured is this one from June 27, a month old.

It's kind of fun, really, to think of how long it will take to fix it and to wonder who may have the bad luck to be stuck with my mug.

My more famous brother, however, gets two entries on the page but no photo with either. And, as an artist, he should have the photos.

Had not heard of cuil, so this is very interesting. Found a photo of my sheltie dog and me on cuil, so that's kind of impressive. Good to know about this one, John.

Try VivaGreensboro.com, and I bet you'd get better results. :)
