| According to a post on Techcrunch Cuil's bot is causing a lot of issues for webmasters: Is Cuil Killing Websites? Has anyone seen any issues? I'm going to check logs to see if I can spot anything, but I hadn't noticed anything to date

I took Cuil off the banned list for a while to see how it fares. So far it hasn't overloaded the server. However this reply from one of Cuil's engineers is very worrying: How CUIL Lost Me as a Customer Long Before They Launched : My Code is Compiling If someone used that "experimental spider" excuse on me, I'd use my experimental shotgun excuse. Hard to think that Irish Blogger/Sunday Times columnist Sarah Carey was "strategic advisor" to the CEO. Regards...jmcc |

| The only one I've had to ban recently was some French bot that was doing very odd things on search.ie The bandwidth usage wasn't the issue - the constant pounding on every single CGI script was !

| It seems Cuil have a lot to be concerned about. The search results it is producing at the moment are horrendous, so much for being a Google filler |
