Today’s Friday Traffic Report radio show found Jim and me talking about real time search and how it might affect your search engine marketing. Specifically, how your Twitter account ranks with Google and Yahoo may just have an effect on whether your tweets will show in search results as the engines continue to experiment with their inclusion.

recently i have been through a post where you can directly check the Twitter updates of your friends from Google SE, by just typing the keyword, this will save you time to log into twitter and check update.
Yahoo! announced its integration of Twitter alone in its search results today, but it’s buried in obscure parts of the site and isn’t based on access to the full Twitter fire hose. Google’s implementation is much better than what Yahoo! or Bing are doing and is going to introduce millions of people to the concept of real-time search for the first time.
Google turned on real-time search on its main site this morning with little fanfare, after a huge announcement and demo earlier this week. Go to google.com and search for a news query (Obama Nobel will work) or for something like “marshallk on twitter” and you’ll see a live streaming section of the page displaying messages from Twitter, newly updated web pages and other real-time information.
