Bing Adding Twitter and Facebook Posts to Search Results

Microsoft announced today that they would be integrating Twitter tweets and Facebook status updates into Bing’s search results. Tweets can be searched from the beta of Bing Twitter search at http://www.bing.com/twitter. Microsoft made no mention of whether or when tweets will be integrated in the standard search results. In July, Bing added tweets from a limited group of high profile individuals to some search queries related to those individuals. Facebook status updates are to be integrated into search results at an unspecified later date. There have rumors that Google has been in discussions with Twitter and Fackbook integrating postings from their services into Google’s search.
