An (Almost) Fruitless Mobile Search

Mobile search is still not really ready to be used….a quick anecdote from someone trying to buy flowers on their Blackberry only to find it “a tedious, frustrating task to click promising links, only to be thwarted by badly designed sites or technology mismatches…A while back, I’d quickly checked the major search engines and learned they’re all mobile-friendly. This is great news for me, over 6 million other Blackberry users, and who knows how many Treo and cell phone users. The dissonance comes when you get to a merchant site and actually try to do something.”
