Taptu, the mobile search engine, and OneRiot, the real-time search engine, have launched a real-time search for mobile. Available right now on Taptu, people can browse hot topics and discover the web’s most relevant new search.
Taptu makes use of OneRiot’s real-time search API, incorporating the web’s freshest, most buzzed about content into Taptu’s mobile-touch friendly interface. Mobile users can now search the real-time web or browse trending topics in a mobile-friendly format for touch screen devices, one of the most significant developments in mobile search to-date.
This partnership fulfills a need for people to discover real-time, socially-influenced content on the go in a mobile-friendly format. The service is available on the major touch devices, including the iPhone, iPod touch, G1, Nokia N 97 and 5800, and the BlackBerry Storm 1.
OneRiot’s real-time results will soon appear within Taptu’s iPhone app, providing even more functionality for realtime search on mobile devices.
OneRiot’s API allows its partners to syndicate its real-time, socially-relevant results; Taptu is the first mobile search engine to leverage the company’s API.
Steve Ives, founder and CEO of Taptu commented, “Taptu introduced touch search to meet the specific needs of mobile users, and adding real-time search to this offering is a great feature. For the first time, mobile users will be able to find out what is going on right now in a mobile friendly format.”
Tobias Peggs, General Manager of OneRiot added, “increasingly, people want constant access to new information – a need that can be even more pressing when on the go. Mobile is an ideal platform for the discovery of real-time information and we are thrilled to partner with Taptu to start offering users the power of real-time search on their mobile devices.
