AOL Testing Mobile Browsing, Search

On the heels of Google (NSDQ: GOOG), Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO) and Answers.com (NSDQ: ANSW) testing local mobile search and information, comes the news that AOL (NYSE: TWX) has begun beta testing its own mobile service that offers full Internet search queries, information on local interests and shopping destinations.
“The new service is not SMS based, as are most of the mobile search services you see today. Rather, it is based on a transcoding technology that automatically adapts Web pages to the dimensions of small mobile screens,” an AOL spokesperson told BetaNews.
