Silver Strike

There is so much hoo ha about Twitter kill Google and Twitter being the future lookup tool. Every single article that you read about Twitter is that they do things in real time, real time discussions and buzz, which is something that Google's results do not really do and do not really cater for at the moment.

Google has responded with so many different methods, the most recent being feeding in Twitter results into the SERPs and having the selection to bring in results that were updated in the last hour. But in my mind twitter is just like any other social site around. There are some downsides to the service in my judgement, which are as follows.

Information

Information and news is all very well and good being in real time, but what if somebody wants to find old archived information or read older stories, can they do that? No, they simply cannot, because nothing is ever crawled so it is going to be a lot harder.

Products

Now this in my opinion is the main killer for Twitter and it's something that Google are doing wrong too. Google are basically trying to bring in a lot more real time results which people have posted and talked about. Every non tech person (the mass user) I know uses either EBay, Google or Amazon to buy something, with Google probably being the first choice. They do this because one, it's easy just type into the search and away you go. Two, its highly relevant, Google have never really let me down when I want to purchase something, they always give me trusted sites. Now what could these product searches do instead? Search around Twitter and get conversations? No thanks, or create an account and ask your 0 followers to assist you out? Or I know, grow your network communicate with people you do not know and ask them, but why? Why would anyone want to do that? People have busy lives and they do not have enough time to constantly update their tweets. What easier solution then to go to Google and type in what you are looking for, does it have to be real time. No, not at all, trusted products from trusted sites which have built that trust with hard work and clever advertising.
