Google Inc., one of the fastest growing search engines on the web, and GiantBear.com, an innovative wireless Internet Application Service Provider (ASP), today announced a relationship whereby GiantBear.com will integrate Google's fast and highly relevant wireless search engine technology into its online offering for mobile devices.
GiantBear.com offers customized web-to-wireless application services to customers such as wireless carriers, e-businesses and corporate enterprises. Platforms supported include wireless cell phones, pagers, PDAs and other wireless computing devices. Today's announced relationship with Google will enable GiantBear.com to offer wireless users the ability to search and browse Google's index of more than 1 billion web pages.
Google's easy-to-use search engine enables users to search wirelessly for web pages on the Internet. The company's proprietary technology enables users to view traditional HTML web pages in WML, the programming language supported by most mobile phone microbrowsers. This content translation happens automatically when the user clicks on a link. Google also automatically compiles the search results into several smaller pages, which are connected by "more" buttons, to offer increased performance.
"Millions of users per day come to Google to find the information they are looking for online. We chose to integrate Google's search engine because of its simplicity, ease-of-use, and ability to quickly return highly relevant search results," said Steven Price, CEO of GiantBear.com. "Google's trusted search engine together with our innovative wireless applications offers our customers a tremendously valuable mobile Internet service."
"GiantBear.com offers powerful tools and services for mobile Internet users to access the information they need while on the go," said Sergey Brin, Google president and co-founder. "This relationship continues Google's aggressive expansion beyond the desktop, and helps bring our technology to new enterprise markets."

Google is based on a variety of innovative technologies, including sophisticated text matching and its advanced, patent-pending technology called PageRank(TM), which ensures that the most important results always come up first. This scalable approach to search enables Google to get better as the Internet gets bigger.
