Google leaks Its Own Search Update??

Search App Refinements from the Folks at Mountain View

Google Search is the most used search engine in the world today. It receives several hundred million search requests everyday. Think about that, several hundred MILLION! If you are reading this blog then chances are you have an Android device that is made to Google Search all day! For all these searches Google has not updated its mobile search engine app in almost a year, 10 months to be exact. From the looks of it, that is all bout to change.

A new update to the Google Search has been outed by surprisingly it seems Google its self. An update was posted this morning to its mobile blog and just as quickly taken down. This update showed that not only is Google working on a new Search app but that it should be here any day. Although the post was only up a short time some information can be gleaned. There will be some changes to the Search UI to make it more user friendly, faster and more consistent searches, and results based upon your location. These results will also be specific to the country you are currently in and will allow you to delete your search history with a long press and hold. The update will be coming for anyone on Android 2.2+ so keep an eye out, the folks at Mountain View will not sit on this for long! Remember you heard it here first!!!
