Google sees voice search as a core part of their business.
Google has said it sees voice search as a major opportunity for the company in building a presence on the mobile web.
The company’s vice president of engineering made the comments during a wide-ranging discussion at the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco.
“We believe voice search is a new form of search and that it is core to our business,” said Vic Gundotra.
SearchEngineLand editor Greg Sterling agreed: “If done right, it could be a valuable strategic feature for Google.”
