BEIJING, April 28 (UPI) -- Alibaba is partnering with mobile browser company UCWeb to launch a mobile only search service to cater to China's growing smartphone users.
The newly formed venture is called Shenma and the mobile search engine is already available at sm.cn. UCWeb owns controlling stake in the partnership and could possibly make the search engine a default in its mobile browser app. UCWeb operates China's largest third-party mobile browser.
