Abstract
Web searching with mobile phones is still not as easy as with Personal Computers (PCs). To solve the problem, we proposed a one-touch search application using first query term extraction from browsed Web pages [1]. This paper reports on a preliminary experiment that we conducted with 50 subjects in order to design the interface of the application. The results of the experiment indicate that although providing query term candidates to users reduces the cost of query input, the complexity of the query input process poses a problem.
