Cuil thumbnails algorithm broken – causes trademark violations

www.cuil.com – a new search engine created by ex-Google employees provides thumbnail images next to search results. The nature of algorithm they use to determine which thumbnail to use for each search result is unclear. What is clear, is that it is broken – terribly so. It seems that the thumbnail Cuil uses next to search results does not have to come from the actual site that appears in the results. If you search Cuil for Free Games for example, the second result lists www.CoffeBreakArcade.com with www.playedonline.com logo appearing next to it. Whatever the reasoning behind it, website like PlayedOnline can claim that their logo is being used to promote other websites.

Free Online Games

It’s summer and I’m not one who fancies outdoor activities. In fact, I would very much prefer to remain at home watching DVDs or playing some online games. You see, I’m an online game lover, there’s no doubt about it. Mind you, because of the holidays, I download free online games at least twice a week. Since I play a lot, I finish the games pretty fast, which also explains why I download games so frequently. Action games, multi-player games, brain teasers, puzzles,cards..you name it! You might wonder where do I get all my games from, well, I use Played Online. This web site is convenient, updates frequently (very important!) and has tens of thousands of games in its library so I’ll never get bored!
