The LA times printed an interesting article that talks about a new Microsoft Live Search service offering that will allow users of windows based mobile phones to perform searches via voice commands. The two most challenging limitations with mobile phone applications are the size of the screen and the input options. Adding voice and speech recognition to mobile search seems to be a great solution to the input problem. Although, I remain highly skeptical of how well it can work after viewing this demo. Regardless of how well it works, kudos to Microsoft for trying to one up Google with some new cutting edge search services.
