This is great news for search having the ability to integrate real time twitter feeds directly in Bing and Google. It adds to an improved user experience for searchers to find the latest information immediately. As well as allowing brands to have the ability to get into the search results much quicker than traditional search engine optimisation (SEO) work. Potentially this is a great strategic move for Twitter to drive brand awareness and usage of its platform.
