I use live search sometimes. But I like the new On Demand new version called pocket express. It seems to be way better than Live search. Check it out at www.pocketexpress.com

I have different type of web portals I use. I have Yahoo GO, Windows Live, On Demand Pocket Express. Using all these three has made it very useful to use.

But can you open up it, click the speak icon and say pretty much anything you want to find???? Then use it to get directions from its current GPS location??

:mrgreen:

Also, Pocket Express is not free. At about $80 a year it's no wonder they were able to give away that Porsche Cayman S a couple months ago.
I choose not to pay for someone else's prize, (nor the payoff to PC Magazine's Editor) - so I'll just stick to Microsoft Live for now thankyou very much. :)

I know that the travel info sounds cool and all, but my company has this (RESX Mobile) for free.

I like the "Collections" list in Live Search because it has a quick launch of "Wikipedia Nearby Entries". So where-ever you are, it's just a click away from telling you all about the vicinity. I can see where other things with this will eventually become more updated and available in the near future.
I also like the "Web" functionality because it saves a couple steps of launching a browser and retyping something that wasn't found in LiveSearch, as well as finding additional info on something regardless of it being found in LiveSearch.
Not a big deal really, just observations.

I use it alot and now with the addition of the speak functionality it makes it easier to use while driving etc.. The voice recogintion is also quite efficient as I said random places like Comerica Park and it found it quickly. Pretty cool app
