When Apple first launched their App Store, Google were one of the first companies to take their place in this virtual marketplace. Google had hoped to have application in place from day one of the App Store launch.
More often than not, Google delivers on their promise that was when they launched the Google Mobile App. This new application allows users to search address contacts, businesses near their current location as well as Websites. Just recently, Google have wowed us with a mobile version of their ever popular Google Earth for the Apple iPhone.
Google are about to enhance on their mobile app and allow voice-activated searches. This would be a great service, as there are times when typing is just difficult. This free application will let users speak their search queries.

People don’t do research on an iphone. They do it on their desktop or notebook or UMPC. I found some voice recognition software named Tazti speech recognition that actually is a free download and performs voice searches of Google, Yahoo, MSN, Wikipedia, Amazon, eBay and many other websites. It also lets me log into and navigate Facebook and Myspace by talking to my PC. It really works well.
Here’s their youtube demo video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1tt_aeIAM8
