Google and Sprint Nextel are  working together to develop a mobile Internet portal that will utilize the WiMax wireless technology to offer Web search and social networking. Sprint's chief technology officer, Barry West is thrilled, as he believes it will increase Sprint’s brand value.

"If you think of the Internet you automatically think of Google," West said. "Obviously having a powerful partner on the Internet helps us become synonymous with the mobile Internet."
