Google Search Results Use Twitter and Facebook Pages

Google Real Time Search Results
Copyright (c) 2009 Sherry Tingley

Google recently announced some new search features that
make searches in real time. They have included search
results from Twitter as well as Facebook pages.

   When Marissa Mayer was hired by Google, over ten years ago,
she thought that Google had a two percent chance of
succeeding. There are only three people at Google who have
more power than she does. With a Master’s Degree from
Stanford University and a focus on artificial intelligence,
Google recognized her abilities. Marissa Mayer has become
one of the most influential women in the nation.

She oversees all of the products being developed at Google
and even approves the front page graphics. The four pillars
of search are mode, media, language and personalization.
Focusing on those pillars several projects have been
developed and are now being released.

One huge project released was the real time search results.
These real time search results include data from all over
the Internet as well as conversations on Twitter and on
Facebook pages. This new tool can be a source of
entertainment as well as a way of gathering the latest
information. A search on Tiger Woods shows comments being
updated just about every second. Spend five minutes
watching this stream of gossip and you’ll begin to see the
power of real time search results.

Voice search is an application that is available on iPhones
and androids. You can search the web with voice commands.
An impressive search example was done with the query, “Show
me pictures of Barack Obama with the French president at
the G-8 Summit. There is a query with a lot of keywords!
Results were shown within fractions of a second.

An application called “near me,” will list nearby
restaurants, shopping and places near your geographic
location. When you travel you’ll be able to find things
quickly without feeling lost.

Google Goggles is another application that recognizes
pictures. Google can identify some objects in photographs.
They did make a point of saying that it will not go into
identifying faces for the sake of personal privacy. This
application may very well become a valuable asset for
visually impaired people.

Perhaps the most powerful communication application is the
translation from one language to another from either the
spoken or written word. You can speak one language and it
will write what you have said in another language and it
can speak it as well. No other modern invention has built
more communication bridges between people who speak
different languages than this application.

Imagine how nice travel will be when people no longer have
communication barriers. What will the world of search look
like in fifteen years from now?
