No new news that Google is focusing on Mobile internet big time and another of its products got a mobile version optimized for popular smartphones today. Google has updated GOOGLE NEWS for the iPhone, Palm Pre and Android platforms to give a better experience to news addicts. While Google News is a good tool and I personally use it daily, I haven’t ever tried it on the iPhone before. Its nice to see that Google is pushing its services to the limit. Here is what the official announcement reads:
This new version provides the same richness and personalization on your phone as Google News provides on desktop. Our new homepage displays more stories, sources, and images while keeping a familiar look and feel. Also, you can now reach your favorite sections, discover new ones, find articles and play videos in fewer clicks. If you are an existing Google News reader on desktop, you will find that all of your personalizations are honored in this mobile version too.
Google News for mobile is now available in 29 languages and 70 editions.
Btw the official screenshots from Google Mobile blog show the carrier as Airtel. The Google News team is based in India that shows.
