Cuil failed to deliver good enough results to drive anyone to change their search behavior, and quickly became the subject of backlash and criticism because of their poor performance and indexing methods that actually took websites down in the process.

Other Google employees have gone on to start ventures of their own, some more successful than others. [...]
