Google Launches Google Mobile Web and Image Search

Google has launched a mobile version of its search engine built specifically for cell phones and mobile devices. Google Mobile, an index of sites which have been designed for mobile users, offers Web Search and Image Search with access to over 8 billion pages and a billion images.

GoogleBlog – Since millions of people across the globe already use mobile phones like there’s no tomorrow, we’re launching Mobile Web Search in many languages. Try it the next time you visit Google on your mobile phone – you’ll see a new option to search the Mobile Web. How different is it than standard web search? There are sites out there that have already been designed for your mobile phone, which makes them more navigable on the small screen. So we’ve created an index specifically for these sites. And so your phone can now be that much more useful.

Google Mobile – Use Google WebSearch on your phone or mobile device to search through 8 billion pages. While on the go, use the Web to find ingredients for a recipe, answer a trivia question to prove that you’re right or find facts on your favorite sports team.
