The beta version of the Google Comprehensive Wireless Search Engine is online.
Google is aiming the new service at a rapidly expanding base of WAP mobile
telephone, Palm and other wireless users frustrated that less than one percent
of websites are currently available in Wireless Markup Language (WML). Rather
than indexing only web pages that are available in WML, Google's technology
translates any requested HTML document into WML on the fly. It also allows
mobile uses to view and browse any HTML site. Wireless users can enter "Google"
or "http://www.google.com/" into their WAP microbrowsers to access the search
engine. Palm users can enter "http://www.google.com/palm".
