Is the Search Industry that Cuil?

Earlier this week, the Cuil search engine (from past Googlers) was launched, ridiculed by the SEO community and just about everyone else. In a Search Engine Land post, Barry showed the "relevancy" of the images as related to notable figures in the search industry. Barry Schwartz (yes, our Barry) is the renown psychologist, Danny Sullivan is the race car driver, Dave Naylor is a can of spam, and I'm a photo of a scantily clad Danny Sullivan.

We tried to do the Cuil search on a lot of forum personalities, but we didn't get so far. Instead, we saw some more industry figures, and here they are:

And Matt Cutts debuts again...as The Lisa Barone:

Here's the most relevant picture EVER: Matt Cutts attacks Greg Boser -

If anything at all, you can have a lot of fun with Cuil. That's the extent of it, though.
