Remember earlier this month when we said Google seems to have a special place in its heart for the iPhone? We now perhaps see a reason why - the Financial Times reports Google is seeing 50 times more searches from iPhone users than any other mobile handset.
“We thought it was a mistake and made our engineers check the logs again,” Vic Gundotra, head of Google’s mobile operations told the Financial Times at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The FT added obviously that "more searches mean increased revenues for Google, which makes its money from advertising attached to search results." You know - that whole Internet chicken and egg concept.
