How much market share will Twitter take from Google?

by Todd Lucier on February 18, 2009

What do you think of Twitter as a search platform?
For those paying attention Twitter is changing the blogosphere and the way relevant web content is determined. A little bird tells me that Google stands to lose market to searches on the micro-blogging Twitter platform in 140 characters.

It’s clear that Web 3.0 is the Here and Now Web.
Google’s algorithms work great as an archive retrieval system, not so much as a time relevant information gathering tool.

Check for bird droppings on your shoulder Google.

Twitter search is poised to take a growing market share of search in 2009, perhaps chasing down, msn and yahoo and taking a bit of google’s market share.

Summize might have been the acquisition of the decade (for Twitter)!

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Twitter Search have a robust home page and start delivering profitable advertising revenues in the very near future.

What do you think?

  • Todd,

    We think about the same and same time ;-)

    I made a post today about this: Does Twitter become the new google?

    With their news funds (some millions dollars), Twitter can developp this new search engine. A mix of technology and human answers by the friends network and the friends of friends ;-)

    Will see.

    best
