Mashable: “Google Realtime Search is coming back soon, and it will include data from Google+ and other social sources. … When asked about if or when Realtime Search would return, Singhal responded by saying the Google Search team is ‘actively working’ on bringing the product back. He added that the team was experimenting with adding data from Google+ and other sources. It seems as if Google doesn’t believe it needs Twitter data to deliver a compelling real-time search offering. – Danny Sullivan, the panel’s moderator and Search Engine Land editor in chief, also asked the panel why the Google+ stream doesn’t have its own search engine (it’s one of the social network’s most requested features). – ‘We are on it,’ Singhal responded.”
SEW: “Since the new Realtime search is expected to be bumped to the front page, much like Places or image data, this works as a way for Google to cross-promote its content. It also falls into the same category as the antitrust concerns currently being reviewed in both the U.S. and Europe, which are focused on whether Google is unfairly favoring its own sites and services. – Will Google realtime even matter without Twitter? As Marketing Pilgrim noted, ‘even once (if) Google+ becomes heavily trafficked, it’s likely that the postings will resemble those you find on Facebook. Google already admitted, that Facebook wasn’t very effective as a real-time news source, so how is Google+ going to be any better?‘”
WPN: “Google Needs Twitter for Realtime Search – If you want to see up to the second results from around the world on what people are saying about any given topic, where do you go? Google+ or Twitter? – If Google really wants to organize the world’s information, maybe it needs to fork out enough money to get that firehose back. At least for a while. The early days are promising, but it’s still entirely possible that Google+ could turn into another Google Buzz or worse yet, another Google Wave. – I still can’t believe Google of all companies launched such an important strategic product without search in the first place.“
