Twitter announced partnerships with both Bing as well as Google. The partnerships are dedicated to the integration of the realtime communications with its news happening at Twitter into the search results of Bing and Google.

Realtime information for some time is an issue already to get information and by this, too, an issue to the search engine business. Already a couple of weeks there have been rumours regarding possible partnerships.

That it happens is most remarkable regarding most diverse news about the growth of Twitter lately. Some sources told that the growth of Twitter is slowing or even retrogressive, which Twitter answered by referring to unmeasured mobile access and unmeasured access by thousands of apps and client software developed for this purpose. Too, it is remarkable and confirming the importance of Twitter, that both Bing and Google already have experiences with the usage of information provided by Twitter.

Below are the official statements about the deals:

@google Nice!

Statement by Bing

Bing is Bringing Twitter Search to You

Twitter pointed to a special url of Bing featuring results based on Twitter located at bing.com/twitter. For now this search engine is not available internationally, at least not everywhere.

Statement by Google

RT @google: Tweets and updates and search, oh my!

According to the statements Google has another approach than Bing by integrating information provided by Twitter into regular search results. A feature, which is already available for a while and which is most obvious by restricting search results to a period of time using the enhanced search options. This now will become a subject to search engine optimization.
