Cuil

Has anybody else made use of Cuil yet? Launched this week, and meant to have greater web reach than Google. I've tried it for a few things and it seems ok - for simple searches anyway. There doesn't seem to be any option for advanced searches though. Either you have to know how to make complicated search queries, or you're stuck making dirty searches.

I just like the format. A lot easier to peruse results than Google. I have to admit that when trying to think of something to search for at first, I tried my own name. Very shallow of me (is it a good thing or a bad thing if very little comes up?). Which raises the question: is it still googling yourself if you're not using Google?
