The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
So apparently the search engine CUIL was et up by ex Google employees and they reckon it's better. I've done a brief higly scientific test and can confirm that, at least as at this morning, they are correct. By entering 'Jammie Dodger' as a search criteria, our very own Jammie Dodger Bored Board comes first in the listing!
Oddly, when I enter the words 'ugly nonce', it brings back Stead's Facebook page!
I saw the article and clicked on the link yesterday - it was down. So I tried it this morning and its very slow. Also I dont like the layout. In my view, they've left it too late to challenge Google unless they come up with something extremely cool to tempt people away.

Like maybe a free Jammie Dodger with every search! You're right though. It doesn't seem to bring anything new to the table, except it's a different colour and lays out the results in blocks instead of a list.
Ooh, don't like that! It's slow to search & the layout slow to read when you get the results (& what's with the pictures everywhere? Text results are good, unless I've specifically asked for anything more) I presume they've been working on this for quite a while - that home page would've been cutting edge 10 years ago! Also, the name just screams "NERD".

I'm sticking with Google.
I betchya they did no market research at all - they probably just showed it to their friends who said (whilst eating a sandwich) Yesh thatsh really good.

I've seen him type - its like watching an arthritic monkey, recently darted with speed, trying to perform key hole surgery on a money spider
Still more skillful than his driving though... ehum
Sorry that was all just mean
