It Looks Like Google Is Also Aiming At Twitter

google_08212001If you remember, in the last post we have discussed how Microsoft’s Bing has included Tweets in its search. This was a partnership between Twitter and Microsoft and their teams. And Twitter users got crazy about it. The idea is fantastic and Microsoft had the courage to implement it. However, Microsoft’s main competitor, Google is coming into the scene. And, guess what, Twitter is also the target.

Here are a few words from Google. “At Google, our goal is to create the most comprehensive, relevant and fast search in the world. In the past few years, an entirely new type of data has emerged — real-time updates like those on Twitter have appeared not only as a way for people to communicate their thoughts and feelings, but also as an interesting source of data about what is happening right now in regard to a particular topic.” – Google. It looks like Google has also reached an agreement with Twitter to “include their updates in our search results”.

Well, let’s face it! Where Microsoft goes, Google is not far behind. Besides, they are each other’s competitions. What else should Google do? Unfortunately thy didn’t figure out that Twitter was a good option on the first place. Second place, Google!
