Cell Phone Search Heats Up
by Kent Lewis on January 31, 2005UncategorizedYahoo! announced a new tool last week that allows users of its local search service to send restaurant and business- type information in the form of a text message from your computer to a mobile phone. The main difference between this new service by Yahoo! and the Google search service is that users will begin the Yahoo! search on their computer to find the location and phone number of a restaurant, for example. Then they will use the Yahoo! service to send the information via SMS text message to their cell phone. Google’s search allows you to begin the search on your cell phone and does not require the use of a computer.
