Soon the facility of availing information on neighborhood stories, movie timings and restaurants will be available to even those mobile users who do not have internet service on their device. This voice-search service on mobile phones is brought to you by no other than Google Inc., creator of the world’s most popular search engine.
 
The Google Company has been determined about creating a database for local and text-based search on mobile phones in India. The completely automatic voice search, which will employ a voice algorithm created by Google locally, was launched recently as a pilot project in Hyderabad. It will provide users information on business listings either through a voice response or SMS on their cell phones. One can, however, also avail Google voice search facility on fixed lines.
 
A similar voice search facility was introduced by rival company, Yahoo Inc. recently in India. But this Yahoo voice search service permits mobile users to seek information on the Internet through a phone call. At present, the voice-search service introduced by Google in India is free of cost. Callers or information seekers can feel free to avail the Google voice-search service through a toll-free number.
