Googling Twitter?
© szlea
Everyone (VentureBeat, Mashable, the Blog Herald) seems to think that Google will soon have a search Twitter function.
Google is definitely collecting data on the web every second these days so the question is when, not if, Google will come out with its own microblogging search engine to compete with Twitter. Google is now preparing to launch a way to index and rank content from services like Twitter, according to the blog Google Operating System.
Twitter has it's own search engine, of course. Google has pointed out two problems with it: it only searches Twitter (there are other microblogs) and it organizes the results by date, not by importances.
We'll see how long it is before the Googletwit Engine launches…
