Apprehending the fact that social media and real-time search is of as much worth for businesses as for consumers, Google announced that its Google Search Appliance the company’s search hardware for businesses will now offer results from Twitter, over and above the traditional Google search results.
With Google already having ensured the accessibility of related Web results from the public Web to the Google Search Appliance customers, the addition of Twitter results will not only further develop the extent of information that users will see, but also provide a real-time glimpse of trends and issues amongst the masses.
Announcing the incorporation of real-time search results from Twitter in the Google Search Appliance, Google product manager Cyrus Mistry said in a blog post: “Social information is essential for businesses: Employees searching for information needed to do their jobs promote from real-time news too.”
Further elaborating the advantages of real-time search for businesses, Mistry added: “They might be increasing a new breakfast cereal, or designing a marketing plan for a clothing line, or writing strategy report for a political campaign. In all of these cases, understanding what is being said just as Twitter users are saying it can be invaluable.”
