Official Google Blog: RT @google: Tweets and updates and search, oh my!

"Given this new type of information and its value to search, we are very excited to announce that we have reached an agreement with Twitter to include their updates in our search results. We believe that our search results and user experience will greatly benefit from the inclusion of this up-to-the-minute data, and we look forward to having a product that showcases how tweets can make search better in the coming months."

Good news indeed. I wonder how page ranks will be handled ...
