Real-Time Search Makes Move Into Mobile
OneRiot and search engine Taptu plan to announce Tuesday that people have an option to browse the Web on mobile phones for trending topics and the most relevant results.
Taptu is the first mobile search engine to link into OneRiot’s application programming interface (API) to develop a mobile app. The API allows companies to syndicate real-time search results. The service is available on the majority of mobile devices, including iPhone, iPod touch, G1, Nokia N 97 and 5800, and BlackBerry Storm 1.
People can search on their phone for real-time news. “You hear there’s a hurricane and want to read the latest buzz on your mobile phone,” says Tobias Peggs, general manager of OneRiot. “So, you do a search for ‘hurricane,’ but you don’t want to see the Wikipedia page. You need quick access to real-time news.”
