Article Abstract:

Google seems to be unbeatable as a search engine, but the business is in its infancy and rivals like IBM are prowling. In the near future search will metastasise from its origins on the PC-centric web and be let loose on all manner of devices and future search engines will be able to build a real-time profile of your interests from past web use.
