Google has just released Gesture Search, a new and experimental feature for phones running the Google Android 2.0 software or above.
Gesture Search is pretty straightforward: you open it up and then draw letters. Draw a M and you�ll get contacts, bookmarks, and apps that start with M. Draw an o and you�ll get results starting with �Mo,� and so on until you find what you�re looking for. Queries can also be erased by drawing a line left to right, while drawing right to left removes the last letter in the current sequence.
In its announcement, GoogleGoogle highlighted how Gesture Search could be a good option for those who may not be able to use voice search and may find that typing to find queries takes too long. While we don�t expect Google to replace AndroidAndroid typing with gestures, it is a nice Google LabsGoogle Labs experiment that we�re sure a lot of people will enjoy using.
