Last week Google officially announced their newly formed partnership with Twitter. The officially statement indicates this partnership will allow social media updates on Twitter to appear in Google’s search results. Google also demonstrated their new Social Search feature at the Web 2.0 conference to really get Internet marketing consultants excited. Although this new feature isn’t live yet, Social Search will be launching soon on Google Experimental and Google Labs.
What does Social Search mean to you?
If you use Twitter for business, it means you’ve just had your world expand exponentially. If you have few Twitter followers and struggle finding new Twitters to follow you, don’t despair. Your tweets will soon be broadcasted to the world.
If you use Twitter for personal communication and you tweet about anything and everything, tweets beware. Be a bit more careful about what you tweet, because like it or not, your tweets will reach more people than you may want.
As with anything in this Web 2.0 age, think before you type.
