    The internet has completely changed the business world. It has changed the whole concept of how to be successful in a home business. It has also provided the opportunity for many to give up the 9 to 5 world and seek their dream on the internet. Some have made this transition seem easy and others continue to struggle.

    Have you been thinking about making this change? Do you have what it takes to make this a successful move? Let’s take a look at a few of the things that ultimately decide who makes the grade and who goes down with the ship.

    1. Work at something you enjoy. There is nothing quite like enjoying your job. It puts a whole new perspective on the world. If you like what you do, working becomes a pleasure instead of a chore. Some of you are probably thinking, yeah right, work is not something to enjoy but rather just a pain that we have to endure.

    Not sure if you have heard but there is a new search engine in town.  It is called cool but is spelled cuil.  Visit cuil.com and you will see a very simple interface.  Nothing cluttered like yahoo or msn.  Simple is the new beautiful :) .  Cuil claims to have 121,617,892,992 site indexed at the time of this writing.  That is at least 10 times more than Google.

    The other cool (pun intended) thing is cuil presents it’s results in column format, just like a magazine or newspaper.  You can select if you want the results in 2 or 3 columns.

    In my playing over the past couple of days I have found it to be very fast in finding results.  Now, remember this is a new search engine so as more people start using cuil it may get slower.  Hopefully the folks at cuil will keep an eye on performance and do upgrades as needed.

    Unlike most other search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN) Cuil does not keep any information on you, what you search for, etc.  They focus more on the sites and the site content.

    Cuil was created by some former Google engineers who recreated the search algorithms from scratch to better index sites by content.

    Cuil presents the search results in a very easy to use format and even categorizes with a tool bar for larger categories that it finds.

    I am not sure of the business model for cuil but at least for now there is no advertising that I have seen.  I guess it remains to be seen if that continues or if they have a different business model than other search engines.  Up to this point though I am not sure how they are going to make money.

    Give it a try.   www.cuil.com.  It might just become your new favorite search engine.
