Many people around the world know about the Twitter platform, the question that I’ve heard on the streets and in the College is the following, does twitter receive money for what they do?  The answer: Yes, but… the real question is… how many?

Due to the fact that Twitter is a social platform based on tweets or status updates that in my personal opinion 80% – 90% are public, Twitter has turn a big and important point of reference if you want to search for opinions, preferences, or as many of us do… news. 

What does twitter figure out? Twitter realize that as they’re one of the important search engine for opinions, thoughts, news, etc… the best deal to make will be with Google and Microsoft. That’s why one or two weeks ago they incorporate real time search (Google) and  twitter-based search (Microsoft) so that twitter makes a small profit this year off of $25 million in revenue. What does the deal make? ok it’s simple it incorporates your status updates in the time-line search on Google or you can search for something more specific in Bing.
(In my opinion, Google’s won this time the challenge, it’s better than the Twitter-bing website)
