They keep track of retweets and URL's mentioned and can bring more relevant results than twitters "recent" searches functionality now.. It is good that way and am sure it is going to be used by marketers too! .-= Aaron´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.ezwebsitemonitoring.com/blog/bing-announces-search-for-twitter-feeds" rel="nofollow">Bing announces search for Twitter feeds</a> =-.

Like I mentioned above, real time doesn't seem necessary for product reviews. I can see the traffic one; that's cool. But most of the time, Twitter isn't going to help me find out who the Yankees' shortstop was in 1957. I agree—I would only want real-time for very specific info.

that said, google dropped the ball on offering twitter-specific searches. had they provided the service (the same way they provide image and video searches through their other properties), bing would have little else to run on because aside from great commercials, bing is short on performance / execution.

my guess is that google threw their “don’t be evil” at twitter just before leaving the roundtable after unsuccessfully making twitter a google property.
