Alex, the Cuil folks say the pronunciation should be "Cool"; this seems a bit hoakey to me.

They say the name derives from the Irish word "Cuil" but it seems that Cuil actually means fly, at least in current usage.

Perhaps it should be Cuill or Coll?.

I agree with you, Clusty can be very useful at times.

Hi Sean - I found Cuil the other day, but was not overly impressed, and I see you are not either.

Not sure how to pronounce the name either, and it would not read too well in Italian either!

I sometimes use Clusty, which I still think is useful.

Hope you are having a kewl summer,

Alex
