Just Ask your Wireless Device

January 22nd, 2005

InfoWorld reported that Ask Jeeves is actively working to bring search capability to your wireless devices such as PDA, smartphones and not-so-smart phones.

VP product management Daniel Read was quoted saying

“A lot of search players have put traditional Web search on to wireless devices, but most of the Web pages you want to go to aren’t rendered properly on a wireless device screen. So we’re looking at rolling out specific search services for the wireless device,” For example, likely information Ask Jeeves could make available from its search arsenal to wireless devices includes local business listings and maps.

They are also working on allowing you to search for music etc.

Slightly off the topic, if you want to convert TiVo-To-Go video to MPEG, read these instructions.
