Today, at Web 2.0 Summit the President of Microsoft’s Online Services Group Qi Lu conforms the integration of Twitter and Facebook with Bing search engine. In result of this deal the real time updated data from Twitter and Facebook will be accessible in the Bing search results.


Before this deal Bing isn’t capable to pull the real time information but this integration with giant real time social networks will strengthen the Microsoft’s search engine and make its results more effective.

Just as a little review on this Microsoft deal the Twitter is more open and provides the real time updates publicly whereas the Facebook users also have option to customize the settings either they want to go public with their updates or not. So, in this case not all the Facebook updates will be the part of Bing search results.

Now there are two things related to this deal for which we have to wait. First is that no details are revealed yet on the financial issues of this Microsoft deal and the other is the Google’s response in return of this Microsoft strategy to make the Bing a real time search engine. So, stay tune with us for further updates.
