Vodafone partners with Google for mobile search

by Marc Perton, posted Feb 14th 2006 at 4:02PM

While Microsoft may be ramping up for a presence in the mobile search market, Google is already there, and continues to make deals to position itself as the default search engine for service providers. The company's latest partnership is with Vodafone, and will net the search giant prime real estate on the Vodafone Live service. The service will provide location and time-sensitive search results for information such as weather and directions.
