Mobile Local and Global Information
new
We often talk about local information versus global information, local search versus global search. Search engines strive these days to bring local services to their users. Maps, mashups, store information, local events and driving instructions are some of the most popular services. Web services delivered to cell phones are getting more attention and there is a reason for it.
Mobile phones are similar to what the Internet once was. Slow dial-up connections made it necessary for Web sites to rely on more text and less graphics. That has changed. The same changes will probably come to a cell phone near you. Cell phones will in the future provide fast access to the Internet.
Web services for mobile users are also getting better. One very interesting Web service is loki.com, which can pinpoint your physical location and help you find information related to your location.
