If Google has got its algorithms right it will have elaborate strings in place to locate what people really mean when they type in a sequence of words. We know they already have the typo thing conquered, and I must say they do a pretty good job even when you’re just typing too fast and get it wrong.

When I want to find information on breaking news or find out what people are saying about the current events I generally head to Twitter first. Twitter is an instant form of search and I find that I get a lot of extremely relevant information from Twitter because the users are the mediators. It’s not an algorithm that is telling me what I am searching for, it’s real people and that is a really powerful tool. It’s one of the main things I talk about in 10 REAL Reasons to Join Twitter Today. Most of the people that I know are using Twitter more and more to find their information on breaking news. It’s exciting to see how Twitter continues to change the internet on a daily basis.
