Google makes its search more mobile - but misses a trick

Google has made searching the web from your mobile easier and more personal. Try it here.

Or text this in your mobile browser: http://www.google.com/m?uipref=3

You can customise to feature pre-selected weather, news, stocks and movies information, tailored to a specific geographic area. However - it ain't that bright. You have to tell it where you are. Not the sharpest tool on a mobile, then...

By factoring in a user's location, the new mobile search engine is claimed to deliver a more relevant list of web results than its previous version.

Yeah, provided you can be bothered to keep telling it where you are.
