Norway's Fast Search & Transfer and Bellevue, Wash.,-based InfoSpace are partnering to offer a search service that telecommunications carriers can brand and offer to their customers. The strategic partnership, exclusive for mobile search, merges Fast's search crawling and indexing technologies with InfoSpace's mobile infrastructure experience.
The service will enable carriers to control their customers' search experience as opposed to have it branded by Google or Yahoo.
