Cuil a New Search Engine Challenges Google

Cuil is the latest search engine launched this Monday by Stanford professor Tom Costello and former Google search architect Anna Patterson with thrice the volume Google index. It is bigger, faster and better than Google's flagship search engine in pretty much every way.

I am searching Google in Cuil search Engine




Cuil is expected to search more web pages than Google and 10 times as many as the search engine of Microsoft.Where Cuil scores over Google is the way it indexes the web and handle queries by users. Both are costly operations, but Cuil claims to have found a way to slash those costs.

A search for dogs, for example, will return category results for "water dogs," "crossbreed", "cocker spaniel" and so on. Some of these related terms do not include the term "dog".

A search for "Harry" would throw up different tabs for "Harry Potter" and "Prince Harry of Wales". Further, the Harry Potter tab will provide more sub-links devoted to actors, Gryffindor dorm-mates and others associated with the series.

Its interface is so good to search and use as we see in the picture.Compared with Google's globe-spanning network of data centres, some literally set up near dams so they can tap hydro power more efficiently, Cuil's two puny data centres hosting less than 2,000 PCs total will have to run pretty fast to outpace Google's crawlers.

As a business proposition, Cuil is obviously a big bet ... No other search engine has come close to entering the public consciousness like this. Of course, Cuil doesn't have to trounce Google on day one. It took Google quite some time to surpass Alta Vista and Yahoo in the search wars.

Basic Stuff in Pointer (part-1):

Pointer is not a tough one to learn, but it is rather easy when you understand the basic stuffs involved in the pointer.

There are six things you need to know to learn the basic stuffs in pointer

Understanding the variables and computer memory:

What will happen when we declare a variable?

Compiler determines what kind of variable it is. Based on the type of variable it reserves a memory. It is very simple to understand with an example.

EG: We are going to buy a chocolate. There are varieties of chocolate with different cost. Some of them are costly and cheaper. What we will do based on our finance we buy chocolate. If we are having 10 rupees we buy chocolate for ten rupees. If we have 50 rupees we buy chocolate for 50 rupees.

Similarly if the variable type is a char it reserves one byte, if it is int 2 bytes and goes on based on the type it allocates memory in computer.

The compiler knows 4 things about a variable

• Its name
• Its type
• Its size
• Its location in memory

E.g.: int a; compiler allocates 4008344 as memory location.

Then’ a’ is variable name
‘a’ is int (Integer) type
‘a’ is 2 byte size
‘a’ is located at 400834 in memory.

Using Size of:

We can determine the size of a variable by Sizeof () operator. Actually sizeof is a function which returns the sizeof a variable.

E.g.: program demonstrating use of sizeof ()
Int a;
printf (“The size of variable 'a' is %d”, sizeof (a));
Result:
The size of variable ‘a’ is 2

Finding memory location with & operator

& is an operator when prefixed with a variable, it returns the location (address) of the variable.
That is why & is prefixed with a variable in name in scanf.

E.g.:
Int a;
Scanf(“%d”,&a);
If we enter 4 as input it scans 4 and saves in the location of a allocated by compiler. To know what the address is we are using & in scanf before variable name.

We can see other three thing s in the next post:

Creating pointer variables
Storing memory locations in pointer
Doing pointer math

IPV4 address will be over by 2011:

Exactly (check out this link to know how many days) www.penrose.uk6x.com this much days available to assign IPV4 address to new users. This calculated using the new allocation of user rate. This rate will increase soon so IETF fear that the addresses will be worn out by 2010.

More than 85 per cent of the available addresses have already been allocated and the rest will run out by 2011, according to a prediction by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

IP addresses are so basic to the success of the Internet that we really do not need to know a website's domain name if we know their IP. In fact, domain names are only a convenience for people to remember the addresses easily to type, say for e.g. www.google.com has IP address of 216.239.39.99. It is tough to remember all the IPV4 address so only we give names for the IP address.

When the IPV4 address scheme was introduced in 1981, there were hardly 500 computers connected to the Internet. So the address makers at that time allowed for four billion addresses, thinking they would last forever. But those address lost for only 30 years.

When the addresses are ran out, Internet speeds will drop and new connections and services (such as Internet phone calling) will either be expensive or simply impossible to obtain.The solution to the shortage is to upgrade to a new address protocol IPV6. The IETF has introduced IPv6, more than a decade ago, providing enough addresses for billions upon billions of devices as well as improving Internet phone and video calls, and possibly even helping to end e-mail spam.

The problem is that the new system is not really compatible with the Internet of today. If, for example, Google wants to support IPv6, it will need to build a whole new IPv6 web service, complete with new domain names, servers and bandwidth. Everyone needs to build a new web service for IPV6. That costs will run into billions of billions of billions...

I got back my luck:

Last one month nothing went good as I thought. Even my plans are got spoiled one way or another. I never knew that vinoth will behave like a rookie uneducated fellow for money. His speech really ruined my mind and my plans. My house owner was very sad. I haven’t got my passport and pan card which are indeed need for my verification.

After a heavy setback I went to temple daily to solve my problems. Now I think the god is very powerful and brought my luck back to me.

I have applied for pan card and got within 13 days.

I got the broadband connection after a long wait from BSNL.

My father finally gave me bike to ride in main road with (not) full confidence.

Finally the American friend of my father brought a Laptop from America. I am very happy that I got a good configured Laptop. Most important it has Windows vista.

After three months I am going to get $3.25.

I think soon I will get a call from my company since I got back my luck. Even every need is fulfilled by God I will continue to worship him.

Smart Eyeglasses for Smart People:

People who suffer from long sight and short sight are requested to wear eyeglasses. Let me give a short intro about Eyeglasses. Eyeglass frames are commonly made from metal or plastic. Lenses were originally made from glass, but many are now made from various types of plastic, including CR-39 and polycarbonate. These materials reduce the danger of breakage and weigh less than glass lenses. Some plastics also have more advantageous optical properties than glass, such as better transmission of visible light and greater absorption of ultraviolet light. Some plastics have a greater index of refraction than most types of glass; this is useful in the making of corrective lenses shaped to correct various vision abnormalities such as myopia, allowing thinner lenses for a given prescription.

There are many things like that are taken into account for preparing eyeglasses. People also need cheap glasses. For those people there is an organization named Zenni optical. Incredible Stylish New Frames from Zenni attracts everyone to buy new glasses. For their quality glasses Zenni Optical was on FOX news! The price of the glasses starts from Zenni Optical $ 8 Rx Eyeglasses. So people are you ready to rock in the streets with new Zenni eyeglasses.

Ganguly threatens Bengal Cricket board

Peeved at "some people in Bengal cricket" harassing his family, particularly his brother Snehashish, former India captain Sourav Ganguly on Thursday threatened to stop playing for the state.However, denying any fall-out with former ICC chief Jagmohan Dalmiya, who is fighting for the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) top post in the AGM on July 29, Ganguly said, "I've nothing against Dalmiya."

"I don't have any problem with him (Dalmiya) coming to power. My only concern is the problem to my family because of some CAB members. I can't tolerate this anymore. If they continue to talk bad things about my family, I'll certainly pull out from Bengal," Ganguly told reporters at his Behala residence.However, the left-hander said, this season he is "available for Bengal" who will fight it out in the Plate Division of Ranji Trophy.

However, a Bengali daily on Thursday quoted Ganguly as saying that he would stop playing for Bengal if Dalmiya comes back to power."During Dalmiya's time, I was dropped from the side and the lost the captaincy and if he again comes back to power, I'll face more difficulties. So it'll be better to leave Bengal in such a situation," Ganguly told the Bengali daily.

Inflation continues to climb, at 11.89 per cent

India's wholesale price index rose 11.89 per cent in the 12 months to June 28, above the previous week's annual rise of 11.63 per cent, government data showed on Friday.The rate was also above a median forecast of 11.75 per cent in a Reuters poll of analysts, and is the highest since annual numbers in the current series became available in April 1995.

Inflation for the week ended May 3 was revised upwards to 8.73 per cent from 7.83 per cent.The annual inflation rate was 4.42 per cent during the corresponding week of the previous year.The wholesale price index is more closely watched than the consumer price index, which is published monthly, because it covers a higher number of products and is published weekly.
