Baidu Tests Web Browser as China Search Leader Expands Range

Baidu Inc., China’s biggest Internet company by market value, rose to a record in Nasdaq trading as the country’s leading search engine said it has developed a Web browser for personal computers.

The desktop browser is being tested internally among employees at present, Baidu spokesman Kaiser Kuo said in an interview today. The new service “dovetails” with the company’s “box-computing” technology, he said, without disclosing when it will be offered to the public.
