    Should we say: NOT YET?

    don't you think it's aint a good thing to have just a monopoly in search engine market? would be good to have multiple players.

    Google isn't a monopoly because of its size.

    Google is a monopoly because it gives the best results.

    Until we have a search engine that can offer results of similar quality, Google will remain a monopoly.

    From some of the posts above, I am seeing some incorrect understandings of "monopoly". Here is the American Heritage Dictionary definition of monopoly: Exclusive control by one group of the means of producing or selling a commodity or service.

    Google does not have a monopoly or anything close to a monopoly. They receive strong competition from Yahoo! and some competition also from MSN and others. They all compete in the free market, and to the present time Google is doing the best. Cuil is welcome to try to join the competition, but as indicated above, they are failing miserably so far.

    This is very true. Your average person just uses Google.

    I've been visited by the Cuil robot but by not by any humans using Cuil. Give them time though.

    Google doesn't have a monopoly. To be successful, Cuil has to compete against Yahoo amongst others. For some of my sites, the biggest SE referrer is Windows Live.
