Google improves mobile local search
Previously, Google’s mobile search offered a search box and several radio buttons for different types of results ?images, news, the web and so on. Under the new system, Google has mingled all types of results together, and organised it based on what mobile users are most likely to be looking for.
Another tweak is the way the service handles local information ?another main interest of mobile users. Previously, to get local search results, a user would have to enter a postcode along with the search terms and then scroll down to the local business listings button. Now, a user has only to enter the postcode once, and all subsequent searches will remember that location. For instance, a search for a term such a restaurant, coffee shop or weather will take users straight to relevant local information.
