Truvo and mobilePeople do search in Belgium

Directory firm Truvo has launched a Java search service in Belgium on mobilePeople’s platform.
Truvo, formerly called World Directories, is the first international directory publisher to add multiple content sources in a searchable format next to its own yellow and white pages listings. They include yellow pages (Pages d’Or), white pages (Pages Blanches), news content from hln.be, weather from Meteo, plus a mobile web search as well as ringtones and wallpapers.
Users can save results to their phonebooks, call a business directly and contact a company by sending an email directly from the results.
The solution is available in both French and Dutch and utilises a single search box approach. Users can display the results on a map, which also allows zooming and panning. They can highlight a street and view it with Scaleable Vector Graphics.
Further country launches in Portugal and the Republic of Ireland are scheduled for the coming months.
