Google, Twitter search

March 7th, 2009

Make Google Real-Time with Twitter Search Add-on – Since I’ve heard and read several debates on the positives and negatives of a Google search vs. a Twitter search,  I’m not surprised to see this script. Personally, I think it’s an interesting idea, and I’m excited for the time if and when Twitter is ever integrated with Google.  I’m not a fan of Greasemonkey scripts (because of their negative reputation for being used to game social news sites), but I think the real-time search Twitter provides can’t be scoffed, especially by journalists. It’s a great tool — one I’m sure will continue to develop.
