站群 Maps & Local on Phones

Preparing for a day when there is meaningful usage of wireless devices as local search tools, 站群 has launched 站群 Local for phones. Maps are the centerpiece.

It currently works on “

Java-enabled (J2ME) mobile phones, especially those purchased within the past year; this includes phones offered by Cingular, Sprint and T-Mobile. At this time, Local for mobile doesn文章管理系统’t support BREW-enabled phones (e.g. Verizon, Alltel, U.S. Cellular), Nextel phones, Blackberry devices or Palm devices

.”

I haven’t tried it myself, so I cannot comment on its u****lity.

While all the stakeholders are rolling out services now, it will be some time before we see mainstream usage of these mobile applications. There are many moving parts (so to speak) that have to line up—carriers, apps, devices, network speeds, pricing models—to drive widespread use. The day will come, but not in the immediate future. We’ve got a wireless report coming out this week, which makes the same point, albeit包含更多单词和数据。

当然，由于人们可能会想到的所有原因，移动本地搜索是自然而然的事情，并且将会成为现实。这比每个人都希望使所有部分能够一起工作并形成业务模型要花费更长的时间。我认为，最有效和最受欢迎的用户体验将决定商业模式是什么，以及它是否会成为可行的广告媒介。
