Google granted a very Cuil search patent

This post is from from my other blog here

Yet another patent on phrase based indexing and retrieval (YaPaIR) Unfortunately Cuil buzz (http://www.huomah.com/News/Latest/How-relevant-is-Cuil-.html)has cooled, but at least co-founder Anna Patterson is back on the radar. If only in name and memories of what used to be that is. And if that radar is for patent droolers and semantic simians... then it is a name of note. You see, things were different back in Oh4 when she was working with Google and toiled on computer learning model for understanding concepts and semantic relationships through phrasing. Ah yes, I remember it like it was yesterday…. That’s Cuil Oh, we were just talking about Phrase based indexing and retrieval (http://www.huomah.com/Search-Engines/Algorithm-Matters/Phrase-Based-Indexing-and-Retrieval-one-more-time.html) last week? You say Bill wrote about it (http://www.seobythesea.com/?p=1120)as well? And we even managed to slip it into yesterday’s rant (http://www.huomah.com/Search-Engines/Learn-SEO/Evolution-and-the-art-of-SEO-.html)? Wow… just doesn’t want to go away huh?
