Recently Google announced the unleashing of Google’s “Real-time search” in the search engine results. Matt Cutts covered it in his blog. This is a new feature that will facilitate Google to provide up-to-the-minute updates (”freshness” and “relevance”) on any search inquiry/subject a user researches.
According to Amit Singhal of Google (responsible for Google search algorithms), “Light can travel around the world in 1/10th of a second, and we won’t rest until the speed of light is the only barrier to getting good search results to you.”
How to use the Google Real-Time Search Feature:
Matt Cutts said in his blog that Google processes billions of documents per day for their real time search. Google has really enhanced considerably in speeding up the crawling and indexing procedure, which is exceptional even with the already-enormous and mounting size of the web.
Step 1: Go to www.google.com
Step 2: Type your query and press “search.”
Step 3: When the results load completely, find “Show options” under the search box. Click it.
Step 4: Under “Any time,” click “Latest.” This will let Google give the latest results (real-time search results).
It is very extraordinary that Google is still able to grant updates as early as “1 minute ago.” This is very fast, and is really “real-time.” You can even observe that Google regularly adds updates even when the browser is not refreshed as indicated: “New results will appear below as they become available.”
One feature I noticed that was neat was the Twitter updates included in the Real-Time Search Results as seen below:
To stop receiving frequent updates, you can click “pause.”

A lot of people do not like twitter and refuse to use the site. It seems that some people think that Twitter and Micro-Blogging is a squander of time and serves no business purpose.
So if you have a moment and want to share your thoughts please post a comment and let everyone know:

Tips On Making Money With Twitter
There are a lot of people online that sign-up for twitter in order to utilize twitter’s money making and marketing capability. I have personally made money because of my twitter account and not so much directly from my account. Some people post spammy affiliate links over and over and simply end up losing followers. Without a strong following of readers you are simply what I call a Sp-itter which is someone who just ads stuff to twitter and no one reads what you are posting, so what you are saying is worthless. If you have followers (a lot of them) then you will make money from and because of twitter.
How to Get More Twitter Followers:
Follow more people in your niche
Post at least 10 useful posts for every promotional tweet
Add Twitter to your blogs, forum accounts, and websites to get more followers
Use twitter Chains like FastFollowers.com to get followers faster (not the best way but works)
Promote your twitter account like you would your own website
How to make money with Twitter:
Join Ad.ly (www.ad.ly) If you have a lot of followers you get paid to tweet stuff (ads).
Post your blog updates to draw in more blog readers thus more money
Post affiliate links to programs you like and are successful with
Sell Sponsored Tweets (Charge A Fee To Post Announcements/Ads)
Create A Twitter Related Website or Service (Directory, ReTweet, Ad.ly)
