Google Real Time Search - Good News for Social Media and Media Industry
Google, the internet search engine, has launched real-time search, to give its users up-to-the-second information.
The search engine has also today celebrated the creator of Popeye, Elzie Crisler Segar, who is the latest person to be recognised with a Google Doodle.
Real-time search data will be collaborated from over a billion pages on the web, and is to include updates from social networking and micro-blogging sites such Twitter, MySpace and Facebook.
Amit Singhal, Google fellow, wrote on the Google Blog: “First, we’re introducing new features that bring your search results to life with a dynamic stream of real-time content from across the web. Now, immediately after conducting a search, you can see live updates from people on popular sites like Twitter and FriendFeed, as well as headlines from news and blog posts published just seconds before.
“When they are relevant, we’ll rank these latest results to show the freshest information right on the search results page.
“Whether it’s an eyewitness tweet, a breaking news story or a fresh blog post, you can find it on Google right after it’s published on the web.”
