Hi, don't know where to cry about this but I was using this swurl.com (its author should be https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=ryes) as my daily search engine replacement. And just today I've found out it stopped working. Was it abandoned or was it sold or what has happened? It was so cool. Now I have to go back to google.

Any recommendation on how I could improve my submission? Sorry for giving the impression that this was a spam but without any possibility to contact the user @ryes, I figured this was the only way to get any answers. swurl was awesome btw.

Hey man. I just wanted to say that I used that search engine too and am sad to see it gone. Maybe it was bought by this picclick site that it redirects to?
