Mobile Workx has tied up with Alabot, a company developing natural language powered chat bot that works on IM, Sms and web, to launch a natural language search through sms.

This search will allow users to search through the directory of users (from open social networks ), mobile content, local business directories, local deals, train / flight tickets, hotel deals and movie tickets for major cities in India. Eventually users can transact through the service as well.

The application will allow users to use phrases from English, Hindi and other languages without having to remember syntax, sentence structure. Also one doesn’t need to remember multiple short codes for multiple services.

This service does look very promising but it really depends on the quality of the search engine. It can definitely get frustrating (and costly) to keep sending back and forth messages for simple answers. Well, to see how it fares, let’s wait and watch.
