Onyomo Mobile Search

November 9, 2008

A happy quack to the reader who alerted me to Onyomo.com. Onyomo is a mobile search service. You can try it from your browser here or you can from your mobile device enter the number 53456 and text “find”. T Mobile would not place the call for me, but you may have better luck than I if you live in Delhi, Bangladore, Mumbai, or one of the other cities Onyomo supports. Harrods Creek, Kentucky, is out of the running at this time.

Reliance Communications, a telecommunications service provider, has launched its Quick Search service. The Quick Search engine is provided by Onyomo.com. You can read more about Quick Search here.

My query for software in Delhi returned two hits, both to colleges. The service is in beta. So it is early days for Onyomo.com.
