Twitter Makes Money / Sense for first time

It's been a long time coming, but yesterday Twitter announced that they will be partnering with Google and Bing to provide real time "tweet" results on Google and Bing search results. Many have speculated that this had to happen, as Twitter provides one thing that these two giants don't have: live search. Over the past year it's become clear that search engines, while extremely useful, struggled to provide instant information on events throughout the world...

Now it seems they've realised. And as a result Twitter is finally making some kind of money... Interesting times... More indepth analysis on the Guardian UK Tech section...

Superfreakonomics

Sure many of you came across the brilliant book from a couple of years ago, Freakonomics, written and created by a journalist Stephen Dubner and economist Steven Levitt - a book that eloquently explains some of life's mysteries through economic theory. Seems in the following months they will be releasing the sequel "Superfreakonomics" which should be cracking read. In the meantime, I have since found that they have a blog on the NY Times that looks really interesting... CHECK it...
