Google instant goes mobile

Love it or hate it Google Instant is here (well you can turn it off or go to Bing if you hate it) but if you love it, then you can slap it on your mobile device, now and take the future of web searching with you in your pocket.

As promised by Google in September the query prediction service has made it onto mobile devices. iPhones and Android 2.2 phones can simply visit Google.com on their device and turn the feature on. It’s as simple as that. The results are equally simple but if you’re having trouble, then here’s an explanation from Google engineer Steve Kanefsky:

“Like the desktop version of Google Instant, when you type on your mobile device you’ll see predictions of what you might be searching for.”

Thanks Kanefsky. What else? “Google Instant pushes the limits of what’s presently possible with mobile browsers and wireless networks. A new AJAX and HTML implementation updates search results pages dynamically so as to eliminate the need to load a new page with every new query.” Great.
