It is a rare occurrence when a piece of consumer electronics can transform and redefine itself to change our expectations of what it can do for us. The iPhone has somehow been able to do this a few times now, and interestingly enough it has done it all through software updates and not hardware changes. The most notable example of this variety of transformation in the iPhone’s short history, is in the release of firmware 1.1.3, which all of a sudden gave the iPhone gps-like locating functionality.
Today marks another transformational point, and this advancement comes not from Apple directly but from their friends over at Google. As most readers already know, Google has their own 3rd party search application on the iPhone. It is called the Google Mobile App and has been available in the App Store for some time now. The Google Mobile App quickly created a buzz because it was created and designed by proven minds, like Nicholas Jitkoff (the creator of Quicksilver).
However until the latest update, this application fueled a very unconvincing argument that it provided more utility than simply launching safari and typing a Google search. That all changes today with version 0.3.142 of the Google Mobile App and its new Voice Search feature. To put it very simply, the Voice Search feature allows users to speak rather than type their google searches. And to the shock of anyone who uses this feature for the first time, it actually works! Check out the video or try it yourself, and your experience should differ very little, if at all.
