Search Engine Cuil Launching Facebook Results

Cuil recently announce the launch of Facebook Results which provides a unique look at your social graph. Simply by linking your Facebook profile to Cuil, an advanced search algorithms can uncover interesting, useful and fun information about your Facebook friends.

• Cuil can uncover connections that wouldn’t be obvious with Facebook alone with a breakthrough search technology that analyzes and identifies ideas and related concepts throughout the web that we then apply to your friends’ profiles and status messages.

The example Cuil provides in their blog post is:

“if you search for “U2,” Cuil knows that this is a famous Irish rock band with many hit records, among thousands of other facts. When this knowledge of U2 is applied to your social graph, Cuil could uncover friends who are Bono fans, are going to concerts this weekend, or even listen to “post-punk” music. The connections are limitless.”

One cool feature is the ability to comment, “like” and visit your friends’ profiles right from the Cuil search page. The ‘share’ link next to each link will also allow you to post interesting results to your wall for all your friends to see. To get started, just click “Connect with Facebook.” Once your profile is linked, keep an eye out for Facebook results on the right during your searches.
