After he left AltaVista, he worked at eBay and then at Google. He left Google in August 2007 to join Cuil, a search engine startup.[1] He was Vice President of Products at Cuil. One month after the launch, he left Cuil, citing differences with the CEO.[2] He also was the co-founder and CTO of Qwiki with Doug Imbruce.
