Crawlers on the loose

Recently, our lab web server has been experiencing a great increase of bot visits. Besides the usual Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc. bots a new one caught my attention. It is visiting pretty frequently: Cuill. From the few information they have on their site, one of the co-founders is a former UIUC CS alumni Anna Patterson.

Cuill Inc. (pronounced [kool]) is a startup company that is pioneering a new approach to Search. The company was founded by Anna, Russell, and Tom. Our offices are located on a quiet street in Menlo Park, CA. If you’d like to learn more about Cuill or the people behind it, please get in touch.
