Mobile Search Not Too Hot
By: Andy Beal 2007-02-13 A recent UK survey of mobile phone users suggests that there may be no where near the amount of people using their cell phones for search, as believed. Just 20% of UK subscribers actually search for content on the mobile internet, despite an industry perception that 89% do, according to research released today, from the Mobile Entertainment Forum and OvumWhats more, theyre not searching for restaurants, or directions. Just 2% conduct a search on a daily basis and those searching less frequently, search for ringtones and music downloads. And remember, this is a UK survey. The Brits are ahead of their US cousins, when it comes to mobile phone adoption and technology. The stats hardly send a warm and fuzzy message to those looking for a broader adoption of mobile content. Comments Tag: mobile search Add to Del.icio.us | Digg | Reddit | Furl
