Google has updated its mobile application for devices running Windows Mobile. The biggest new feature includes My Location, which allow users who perform Google searches to find local results based on where they are. This will help users find things that are nearby. Users have to enable My Location, and can turn it off at any time. Other improvements to the mobile application include Google Suggest. Suggest will analyze what users are typing as they enter search queries and offer suggestions to make the process faster. Google has also added the ability to integrate Google Maps with local search results. This will allow users to open Google Maps from the search page to see detailed location information about their query. The application is a free download.
