Twitter Becomes A Search Engine

Twitter’s updated front page now shows a giant search box with trending topics under it. Is this where Twitter’s cannonball into the pool last summer really starts to create a giant splash?

Now people can search results taken from content updated within the past 1 second. Twitter’s search algorithm is expected to evolve quickly (currently all results are served in chronological order). Advertisers are chomping at the bit to see what type of self-serve platform Twitter may be constructing.

The new look and feel should engage a few folks still sitting on the sidelines who never enjoyed or understood blogging, much less microblogging or nanoblogging)
