The great Twitter search engine deal

5. Twitter's only going to get more important for marketers.  This announcement shows how important Twitter is becoming to the internet ecosystem. If both Microsoft and Google have decided that Twitter is the only game in town when it comes to this sort of real-time search, then you can take it that it's going to be an ever more important part of the way people navigate the web. If you haven't already got a Twitter strategy in place then you're going to need to get one quickly - Twitter's audience is going to jump massively as a result of this announcement and if you're not on board then you're going to miss the boat.

Lots more interesting stuff in this article by Doug Platts on Revolution Magazine.

Could twitter become a back door way of posting directly to search engines?
