AOL Tests Mobile Search Engine July 27, 2005
America Online’s new service automatically adapts Web search results pages to view on smartphones and PDAs.
By Mobile Pipeline Staff
Mobile Pipeline
America Online said Wednesday that it has started a public beta test of search services aimed at users of mobile devices such as smartphones and PDAs.
The Mobile AOL Search Service uses technology from Israeli vendor InfoGin that automatically adapts Web pages for viewing on smaller-screened mobile devices, the company said in a statement. The company said that provides access to virtually all Web pages, not just those on sites that are Wireless Access Protocol (WAP)-enabled.

Yahoo Buys Maker of ‘Widget’ Applications
Yahoo Buys Maker of ‘Widget’ Applications

Popular Web Site Yahoo Inc. Buys Maker of ‘Widget’ Applications
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Hoping to pave a new path to its popular Web site, Yahoo Inc. has acquired Konfabulator, a tiny software maker that provides a computer platform for monitoring the weather, stock prices and a wealth of other customized information without opening a Web browser.
ADVERTISEMENT
The deal, finalized late last week for an undisclosed price, gives Yahoo access to a toolbox of mini-applications — known as widgets — that have built a cult following since Palo Alto-based Konfabulator first introduced them for Apple Computer Inc.’s Macintosh in 2002.
Apple liked the concept so much that it includes a widgets dashboard in the Mac’s operating system. With just three employees, Konfabulator designs its widget software to run on the ubiquitous Windows operating system as well.
The widgets are designed to make it easy for outsiders to develop and share new applications — a concept that Yahoo wants to encourage as it experiments with new ways to make the wealth of information on its Web site more useful, said Toni Schneider, vice president of the company’s developer network.

Double-Digit Growth in Search Seen by AOL and Ask Jeeves From Q1 to Q2 2005, While Top Search Players Google and Yahoo! Maintain Consistent Growth, According to Nielsen//NetRatings
Newly Released June 2005 Search Share Data Reports Google at 47 Percent, Yahoo! at 22 Percent and MSN at 12 Percent; My Way Search Makes Its Way Into Top Five Rankings for the First Time
NEW YORK, July 21
Nielsen//NetRatings, a global leader in Internet media and market research, reported today Q1 and Q2 search growth for the top five search engines. AOL and Ask Jeeves rose 15 and 16 percent, respectively, in the number of searches conducted, while Google and Yahoo! maintained single digit growth (see Table 1). Overall, search as a category saw a five percent increase in the number of searches conducted from Q1 to Q2 during 2005.
“While growth in searches was modest among the ‘Big Three’ search engines, the fourth and fifth biggest search engines, AOL and Ask Jeeves, grew three times as fast,” said Ken Cassar, director of strategic analysis, Nielsen//NetRatings. “While it’s far too early to say that Google needs to watch its back, a resurgent AOL makes the game a lot more interesting.”

June 2005 Search Share Data Released
The newly released June 2005 MegaView Search report ranks Google No. 1 with 47 percent of all searches conducted online, Yahoo! at 22 percent and MSN at 12 percent (see Table 2). AOL Search held five percent of all searches, and for the first time, My Way Search made its way into the top five rankings, garnering two percent of all searches.
“My Way’s unique anti-advertising value proposition resonates with a small, but growing market niche,” said Cassar. “As online publishers enjoy the growing demand for advertising inventory and continue to create more ad slots within a finite number of Web pages, this disaffected minority may become a force that the major players need to contend with.”
