San Francisco (GaeaTimes.com) - Google Realtime is an impressive and updated searching techniques innovated by the famous search engine giant. It includes the latest updates from sources like Twitter, Yahoo! Answers, blogs, and news websites.

Since its release in late 2009 GOOGLE has been done a little improvement in this unique technique. But today the mere “Updates” tab has its own domain www.google.com/realtime. But it is rolled out to users currently. Click on the link to experience Google Realtime.

Now a simple question might arise in your mind that what’s new in that sear engine? Well there are three key added: Location Refinements, Conversation View and Google Alerts for Updates. These are great tools which will lessen user’s searching effort and will refine all the search result based upon some specific criteria. Location Refinements is just crazy as far as its accuracy and result is concerned. User can find geographic refinement to see search result near him or the region he/she will specify.

Conversation View will provide a real-time discussion type presentation. You can see all the tweets with your given search keyword. If you are frequent user of Twitter you can realize that often a single tweet and re-tweet will take longer pages and it’s very tedious to find the original one. Also you have to go through a bunch of links. But one page presentation of tweets in Conversation View will give you glance of all tweets in a single page grouped up by oldest to newest tweets.

Finally Google Alerts will provide you the chance to stay update as soon as any tweet or post will be available with your given keyword. You can find the link below your page. There you can also see a bar graph presentation at the top of the page of previous six hours. You can easily see the amount of posts having your topic or keyword from the graphic presentation.

Overall it seems that Google will catch the market once again with its innovative style. Microsoft’s Bing had the real time search from its start with collaboration from Yahoo. Now they seem to be Google’s biggest enemy in realtime search battle. Let’s wait to see fate of this latest Google service.
