Twitter Results on Google

There is so much hoo ha about Twitter kill Google and Twitter being the future lookup tool. Every single article that you read about Twitter is that they do things in real time, real time discussions and buzz, which is something that Google’s results do not really do and do not really cater for at the moment.

 

Google has responded with so many different methods, the most recent being feeding in Twitter results into the SERPs and having the option to bring in results that were updated in the last hour. But in my mind twitter is just like any other social site around. There are a few downsides to the service in my opinion which are as follows.

 

Information

The information and the news is all very well and good being in real time, but what if someone wants to read up on older information, can they really do that? No they simply cannot, because it’s all in real time and sites are actually never crawled and indexed, it is going to be very hard.

 

Products

Now this in my judgement is the main killer for Twitter and it’s something that Google are doing awry too. Google are basically trying to bring in a lot more real time results which people have posted and talked about. Each and every non tech person (the big scale market) I know either uses Ebay or Google to find a product, with Google probably being the best choice. They do this because it is hassle free, its so easy to type into search and away you go. Two, its highly relevant, Google have never really let me down when I want to purchase something, they always give me trusted sites. Now what could these product searches do instead? Search on Twitter and get conversations? No thanks, or create an account and ask your 0 followers to assist you out? Or I know, expand your network and communicate with people you have hardly met, but why? Why would anyone want to do that? People have very busy lives and do not have near enough time to constantly update their tweets. What easier solution then to go to Google and type in what you are looking for, does it have to be genuine time. No, not at all, trusted products from trusted sites which have reinforced that trust with hard work and ingenious advertising.
