Google to add Twitter search engine service

Twitter posts indexed and ranked by search term relevancy. This is pretty strong and will make your micro-blogging activity on Twitter even more valuable.

From the ” Google Operating System” blog -

“Google prepares to launch a service that indexes and ranks content from microblogging services like Twitter. Since it’s very easy to post updates and the posts are usually very short, micro-blogging services are great for live blogging, posting real-time information about an event. …

Much like Google Blog Search, Google’s microblogging search service will sort the results by relevancy and it also be integrated with Google’s web search engine: the keywords that are frequently used in recent posts will trigger a MicroBlogsearch universal search group.”

This new Google Twitter search service will really make up for the current weakness in Twitter’s search, assuming Google does its typical superior implementation. Hope they launch soon
