Google Mobile Search Now Shows Tweets

Google recently updated the mobile app for Android and iOS and has added Tweets to its search results.

So it looks like a deal is in place with Google and Twitter. Google has updated its app so that the users would get tweets in search results on their mobiles. The tweets come to the search results if the word ‘Twitter’ is used while searching.

Specific accounts and hashtags would also come in the search result and you would also get tweets for any standard search. Google went to its official account and said that it is attempting to put real time info into the results and it also provides the Twitter users with a larger audience for their content as well.

This new step by Google will help Twitter in expanding to a wider audience. Twitter has had its share of problems in the past few months and things were not going good for them. Their investors stopped believing in them and they were worried about their investments in Twitter.

The company’s user base was not growing at a fast pace. This would help Twitter’s cause and will help them to get more potential new users. Twitter also went to its official blog post but provided very little information regarding the arrangement.

Both Google and Twitter’s blog post said that the integration will begin showing up for Google users in the United States with English as their primary language today. So if they are using google.com then they will get this new feature on desktop.

Support for other countries is coming in the next few months. So now more users will see tweets in front of them when they use Google’s search engine. Twitter are still to convince their users that the service is a worthwhile destination.

Twitter has definitely not reached the heights of other social media websites. By this new tactic they will get some new users but not a lot because they will have to change what they are offering on their website and on their mobile apps.
