NEW DELHI: Aimed at strengthening its foothold in the Indian mobile internet space,
tech giant Google will enable faster search capability for mobile phones with slower network connections.
Using a new streamlined version of its search results page,the US-based company will automatically
check if a user has a slow wireless connection and deliver a fast loading version of search.
"Increasingly, people in India are accessing the internet through mobile devices such as their smartphones.
However, not all of these devices come with fast, cheap connections,"
Google's distinguished software engineer Bharat Mediratta said in a blogpost.
Fewer bytes means users get answers faster and cheaper, he added. http://m.timesofindia.com/tech/tech-news/Google-to-make-search-faster-on-slow-mobile-networks-in-India/articleshow/44397278.cms
