Google Announces Quick Search Box for Android Phones

Google has announced Quick Search Box (QSB) for Android phones which allows users to quickly search your phone and the Internet right from your phone's home screen. No need to launch the Web browser anymore. (See demo video to the right).
When users type in their phone, Quick Search Box provides suggestions as user’s type, limiting the amount of keystrokes required.

QSB provides one single search box to let users search content on their phone, including apps, contacts, and browser history, as well as content from the web, like personalized search suggestions, local business listings, stock quotes, weather, and flight status, all without opening the browser. No need to have one search box for the web and another for the phone.

QSB also learns users habits and provides faster access to the items users search for and use most often (by, for example, moving them higher on the suggestions list).

Additionally, users can now also tap the microphone button next to the search box to search the web and call contacts by voice. For example if a user wants to search the web or call a friend, a user can speak their query, like "pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge at sunset", or the name of a contact, like "Call Dave Burke, mobile phone", to save even more time. Note that voice search currently only works in English.

Finally, QSB can search for third party apps and also include suggestions in the list, making it faster to access the content you want from those apps, too. Look on Android Market for apps that support QSB, and enable their suggestions from the system search settings.
