There seems to be a new spam stream has a subject line of "Cuil - new google-ish
search engine".

www.cuil.com has also shown up in my website referral stats along with 
www.webwombat.com.au

This is distinct from the "22 different refering search engines":
Google, Google (Images), Windows Live
Yahoo!,MSN Search, Google (cache),Unknown search engines
AOL,Ask,AltaVista,DMOZ,MyWebSearch,Voila,Dogpile,Search.com
Netscape,Tiscali,del.icio.us (Social Bookmark),Eniro Sverige
search.ch,Scroogle,Excite

No sign of Lycos or Altavista???

After prompting from Link... I checked out Cuil with " ICT Governance"  and
myself. It prompted with Marghanita Laski before I finished typing and was OK on
ICT Governance.
