Finally! I'm so happy to share with everyone that it has been announced; Tweets will now be included in Google search results. Let me explain how I believe this will work. You are in New York City and you want to go to 55 Bar (my favorite bar in NY), you do what you always do - Google it. So you Google '55 Bar' I image along the top we'll see Tweets from people mentioning the bar. You'll probably see something like OptiLaw says 'Having a good time @55Bar, great band tonight!'.
See the power in that? Real time updates on stuff that actually matters. This is where the power of Twitter actually really hits the real world. This is where Twitter dominates and nothing else comes close.
Another story on how Twitter helped me. I was in New York at my apartment in Battery Park. I heard loud cracking noises in the sky and bright lights. I was thinking 'What the hell is that?'. So I went on Google and stalled ... What should I search for? Battery park? New York? That would only return web sites or News feeds that are often times hours old. So I went on Twitter and found many people 'Enjoying the fireworks in New Jersey' (which is across the river from my apartment).
Twitter is awesome. Twitter with Google is super awesome. Oh yeah evidently Tweets will also be in Bing's search results, not that anyone uses Bing.
