					How to take a look at the company's new search interface<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images2.pocket-lint.com/images/rd3Y/test-out-googles-prototype-homepage-0.jpg" alt="Test out Google's prototype homepage" />				</p>
				<p><p>Google's doing a bit of testing on a new <a href="http://www.google.com">Google.com</a> homepage that is possible to access and take a poke around. If you're feeling adventurous, then head over to Google.com (not .co.uk or any other regional site), log out of your Google account if you have one and paste the following into the address bar:</p>
<p><textarea style="width: 615px; height: 65px; font-size: 80%;">javascript:void(document.cookie="PREF=ID=20b6e4c2f44943bb:U=4bf292d46faad806:TM=1249677602:LM=1257919388:S=odm0Ys-53ZueXfZG;path=/; domain=.google.com");</textarea></p>
<p>If all goes well, you can then reload the page and you'll get an image a bit like the one at the top of the page. It has a new logo, with much less shadowing, as well as the option to skip the results page if it includes a result that the vast majority of people click on.</p>
<p>There's also a permanent sidebar on the left that allows you to pick what kind of content you're searching for, some related searches, and other search options to help narrow down exactly what it is you're looking for.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>?</p></p>

					Film search on your phone <br />
					<img class="" src="http://images4.pocket-lint.com/images/rcjF/google-mobile-offers-movie-search-0.jpg" alt="VIDEO: Google Mobile offers movie search" />				</p>
				<p><p>Google has announced the launch of a mobile version of the new Google Search results for movies with a light-hearted promo vid.<br /><br />With the claim that the service makes it easier to plan a trip to the movies, the app works for iPhones, Palm webOS handsets and Android-powered devices.<br /><br />To use it, go to google.com in the phone's web browser, search for "movies", and then tap on the "More movies" link. From there, Google says, you can either browse a list of movies or "select the 'Theaters' button to browse a list of theaters near you".<br /><br />The new movie listings page includes buttons to play trailers on your phone, ratings and categories, movie posters, upcoming showtimes, as well as a list of the nearest cinemas.<br /><br />The new search results for movies are available in English in the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.</p></p>

					Flashing the cash to buy the news after Murdoch approach<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/r9Ma/microsoft-money-news-corp-de-google-content-0.jpg" alt="Microsoft offers money for News Corp to de-Google its content" />				</p>
				<p><p>The <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/29382/murdoch-will-remove-content-google" target="_blank">Rupert Murdoch saga</a> over Google making News Corp content widely available for people to "steal" has taken an interesting turn according to recent insider reports, suggesting Microsoft has been invited to enter talks with the media giant on the topic.<br /><br />The reports suggest that Microsoft, with an opportunity to get one over on search behemoth Google, could offer to pay News Corp to "de-index" its news websites from Google, therefore making Microsoft's search offering Bing the place to go for News Corp news content.<br /><br />While in the UK this could mean content from the The Times and The Sun no longer appearing on Google News, The Financial Times states that Microsoft has also suggested the payment plan to other big online publishers as an incentive to get them to remove their sites from Google's search engine too.</p>
<p>Murdoch has already threatened to remove News Corp content from Google, so this scheme, financed by Microsoft's large coffers, could offer the perfect solution for Murdoch - if not for the consumer.</p></p>

					Interface for finding similar pictures<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images3.pocket-lint.com/images/r4ZP/google-launches-image-swirl-experiment-0.jpg" alt="Google lanches Image Swirl experiment. Software, Online, Google, Google Image Swirl, Search engines 0" />				</p>
				<p><p>Google <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/explore-images-with-google-image-swirl.html" target="_blank">has launched</a> a new product to its experimental "<a href="http://www.googlelabs.com/" target="_blank">labs</a>" offerings called <a href="http://image-swirl.googlelabs.com/" target="_blank">Image Swirl</a>. It's an interface for sifting through the piles of pictures that appear when you conduct an image search and aims to group similar pictures together.</p>
<p>Google says that Image Swirl "builds on new computer vision research to cluster similar images into representative groups in a fun, exploratory interface". That interface consists of a number of stacks of photos that expand when you click on them into spider diagrams. It's a little bit like the Wonder Wheel that Google is experimenting with for search results.</p>
<p>For the moment Image Swirl will only work with 200,000 or so queries - not everything. That should increase over time and begin to include more obscure content. The search field auto-updates as you type, so you'll be able to see relatively quickly if what you're looking for is in there or not.</p>
<p>What do you think? Useful tool, or pointless flashy interface? Let us know in the comments.</p></p>

				<p><p><a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/microsoft">Microsoft</a>?has, it might come as a surprise, announced the official launch of <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/bing">Bing</a>?in the UK on Friday.</p>
<p>"Following a period of trial and continued in-depth analysis of consumer usage and behaviour, the service has been put through its paces and Bing is now shedding its beta tag", the company said in a statement.</p>
<p>Having carried the beta tag for the last 5 months, Microsoft&rsquo;s European Search Technology Centre believes now is the time to shed the beta moniker and go legit.</p>
<p>UK visitors will get a localised UK homepage, Visual Search, the promise of more instant answers, Twitter search capabilities, shopping data via Ciao, and Bing Maps.</p>
<p>"Bing is ready for the UK consumer, with our revolutionary way of searching the Internet proving very popular. ?Features such as Categorised Search, Twitter and Visual Search, are providing a different and intuitive experience, and are enabling us all to make informed decisions and discover more of the web &ndash; faster", said Ashley Highfield, VP and MD for Consumer & Online, Microsoft UK.</p>
<p>However UK visitors won't be getting all the latest updates at the same time as the US.?<a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com//news/29479/bing-turns-to-wolfram-alpha">Wolfram Alpha</a>?for example is still nowhere to be seen. ?</p>

					Make sure "strict" settings stay so<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images3.pocket-lint.com/images/qYpf/video-how-to-lock-google-safesearch-0.jpg" alt="VIDEO: Google demos locking SafeSearch" />				</p>
				<p><p>Addressing the problem that Google's SafeSearch is only safe if the little blighters you're trying to "protect" from nefarious web content haven't worked out the fairly simple way to undo the settings, Google has introduced a way to lock it down.</p>
<p>Now when choosing the "strict" setting in SafeSearch, users can use their Google username and password to lock it to make sure it stays strict.<br /><br />Concerned parents can hit play on the video above for a walkthrough on how-to do it - and an at-a-glance way of checking it's locked from across the room - but remember folks, "it's no substitute for adult supervision".</p>

					Nutritional and maths data<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/qY0W/bing-turns-to-wolfram-alpha-0.jpg" alt="Bing turns to Wolfram Alpha to help with search results" />				</p>
				<p><p>Wolfram Alpha has announced that it will be supplying Microsoft's Bing search engine with some of its results.</p>
<p>Following the launch of an API for developers to tap into the computational search engine, Wolfram Alpha has announced that it will now be making nutritional and mathematical data available to Bing users.</p>
<p>"By using Wolfram Alpha, Bing recognizes the complementary benefits of bringing computational knowledge to the forefront of the search experience", says the Wolfram Alpha team.</p>
<p>Bing is hoping that the roughly 90 Million Americans that are on a diet every year will turn to them to find out how fat they really are.</p>
<p>"When you search for specific food items on Bing, you&rsquo;ll get a nutrition quick tab that allows you to learn more about it. You also get a nutrition facts label at the bottom of the results page that summarizes all information on that food item in a very familiar and friendly format", said Microsoft.</p>
<p>The new feature is expected to roll out in the next couple of days.</p>

					"They steal our stories"<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/qSL0/murdoch-will-remove-content-google-0.jpg" alt="Murdoch to block Google searches on News Corp content " />				</p>
				<p><p>News content from The Times and The Sun could soon be noticeably absent in online searches and news aggregators if News Corp's chairman and CEO, Rupert Murdoch, has is way. <br /><br />Murdoch, not shy to speak out about how he feels Google has threatened the newspaper industry, has said he will consider removing his papers' content from Google's search index, possibly as early as next year.<br /><br />"I think we will [remove our websites from Google's search index] but that's when we start charging", Murdoch told Sky News Australia, referring to the pay wall he is planning for online content.<br /><br />"The people who simply just pick up everything and run with it &ndash; steal our stories, we say they steal our stories - they just take them. That's Google, that's Microsoft, that's Ask.com, a whole lot of people ... they shouldn't have had it free all the time, and I think we've been asleep".</p>
<p>Meanwhile <a href="http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/ab874200-cd28-11de-a748-00144feabdc0.html?nclick_check=1" target="_blank">The FT</a> reports Murdoch actually threatened to sue the likes of the BBC when asked about how he plans to charge for content when the same stories are covered by broadcasters such as the BBC and ABC.<br /><br />"But we are better", said Murdoch. "And anyway, if you look at them, most of their stuff is stolen from the newspapers now, and we&rsquo;ll be suing them for copyright".</p>

				<p><p>Google has put up another "Doodle" on its homepage above the iconic search box, depicting both Cookie Monster and <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfmoms/detail?entry_id=50958" target="_blank">Big Bird</a> - depending on where in the world you're located.</p>
<p>Clicking the image links through to a <a href="http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=sesame+street&hl=en&ct=cookie_monster-hp&oi=ddle" target="_blank">search for Sesame Street</a>, marking the 40th anniversary of the popular kids TV show. It follows another doodle recently <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/29271/google-doodle-wallace-gromit-birthday" target="_blank">celebrating Wallace and Gromit's 20th birthday</a>.</p>
<p>Sesame Street debuted in November 1969 and still continues to this day, now in its 41st season. Celebrities regularly appear on the show, and Michelle Obama, the first lady of the United States, will be appearing at some point in the next year.</p></p>

				<p><p>Google has posted another of its infamous homepage "doodles" today celebrating the birthday of Wallace and Gromit. <br /><br />Created by Nick Park, it seems the plasticine pair debuted on this day back in 1989 at an animation festival in Bristol. <br /><br />20 years on and the pair are as popular as ever - and clearly popular in the Google offices too.</p></p>

				<p><p>Google has announced its search by voice service is available as a free download for Nokia S60 phones such as Nseries or Eseries handsets. <br /><br />Google explains: "The new version of Google Mobile App places a shortcut to Google search on your Nokia phone's home screen, allowing you to search using your voice or by typing. You can search for anything - from "movie times", to "fish 'n chips", to "masala dosa." It doesn't matter if you're in London or Bangalore: we'll use your location to give you nearby results. And Google Mobile App shows search results in the application, so you don't have to wait for a web browser to launch to get an answer".<br /><br />The new version of Google Mobile App for Nokia S60 devices works for Mandarin speakers too, with support for Mandarin speech recognition such as Android and iPhone in the works.</p></p>

					The winners and losers of the big G's latest venture<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/q1QA/winners-and-losers-google-music-0.jpg" alt="Who'll be the casualties of Google Music?" />				</p>
				<p><p>Not content with<a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/28309/google-free-turn-by-turn-navigation-android-maps"> crashing down hard on the satnav industry</a> yesterday, today Google put the willies up the music industry too with the launch of a <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/28342/google-demos-music-search-video">Google music search feature</a>. Just before you go diving off to try it, it's only available in the US at the moment, but so far it's not that extensive anyway. Currently, you can enter a song, a band, a lyric or anything that pertains to music and the engine will come up with a section of music results at the top as it might do with images or videos. The links include streamed previews, music discovery services and, indirectly, mp3 sales too. So, in its current form and even looking to the future, just whose toes are getting trodden and which sites and services will manage to come out okay?<br />?<br /></p>
<h3>imeem</h3>
<p>As one of the music discovery services that Google promotes in the music links, imeem should receive a boost when the service goes global. It's already a popular site but being thrust to the top of the rankings will certainly do it the power of good. There's always new users waiting to be signed up. Even this development from Google is a long way off the kind of niche that imeem occupies, so the company should be pretty pleased about it all.<br /><strong>Verdict - Winner</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>iTunes</h3>
<p>Plenty of music purchases start with an internet search to find out what an artist, album or song is called and if there's a link to buy the track straight away, this being the case it could take some business away fro Apple. At the moment, the links to buy are only there on certain tracks and only once the user has already clicked through to one of Google's partner sites. The other issue is that the Google offering could develop into a streaming service and prove a threat to iTunes on that front. Whatever it means, it's not good news for Apple but you'd think that Jobs Inc has something clever up their sleeves what with the wind of change in the music industry anyway. Apple ditched DRM when it realised it had to and doubtless the company will look to streaming or another change in model soon anyway.<br /><strong>Verdict - Short term loser</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>Pandora</h3>
<p>As one of Google's partners for this venture it's generally quids in for Pandora. A link straight to the top of the rankings without having to battle the SEO gods saves a lot of time, stress and effort and should win the service even more users than it already has. Opening out beyond the US would probably do them more favours though.<br /><strong>Verdict - Winner</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>MySpace</h3>
<p>The vintage social network already does surprisingly well out of Google's ventures with the odd music video popping up far higher in search results than the site's waning popularity would suggest. Hard to tell whether the service is on an endless slope to destruction or if it'll reach an eventual plateau of loyal users, but the music feature from Google will certainly provide a brief stay of execution. In the long run though, it could just keep actual traffic away from the MySpace site with just its content being streamed to Google's pages. No ad impressions for them there.<br /><strong>Verdict - Short term winner</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>iLike</h3>
<p>On the other hand, MySpace's recent acquisition of the ex-Facebook app iLike could prove to help a whole lot more. Firstly, the site has a far more modern offering than its buyer, and more importantly, it's one of the click throughs for Google where you can buy the track you've just searched for. Nice business unless, of course, Google decides to sell the tracks itself.? <br /><strong>Verdict - Winner</strong><br /> <br /></p>
<h3>Spotify</h3>
<p>No real problems at present. Yes, there's a degree of streaming you can do with the Google music feature but it doesn't compare to the entire Spotify platform and its tidal wave of good will support. If Google really wanted to, there's no doubt the engineers could build themselves an equally impressive model with even further reach. Daniel Ek won't be losing any sleep over this one but it might sit at the back of the Spotify supremos mind<br /><strong>Verdict - Long term niggle</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>Record shops</h3>
<p>The damage was done here a long time ago. As Pocket-lint's resident expert on digital music put only too succinctly, "went into Fopp the other day. Made a mental note to check out a few things on Spotify. Bought nothing". Most high street retailers will be too busy looking across at the empty Zavi stores to have noticed what Google has just announced.<br /><strong>Verdict - Already lost</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>Wikipedia</h3>
<p>Wikipedia has done a fantastic job of romping its way up the searching rankings for absolutely everything, including music. Having Google plonk its music feature at the top of the list along with links to the companies partners with all the information you could possibly want on a band or a song is something of a party pooper. Naturally, this isn't Wikipedia's sole business but what happens when Google has a feature of its own for just about everything?<br /><strong>Verdict - Loser</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>Amazon mp3</h3>
<p>Like Wikipedia, Amazon has enjoyed top billing on the Google rankings and having its mp3 downloads service trumped by something of Google's very own is both frustrating and simply insurmountable. As it stands, it's an irritant, but if Google takes the time to put a Buy Now button next to their results that go straight to Google check, then there's a problem. Fortunately, mp3 sales aren't the core of Amazon's business, the company will still do fine with them all the same through deferred sales within their own network and as much consumer trust as any e-tailer can have.<br /><strong>Verdict - Loser</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>YouTube</h3>
<p>Bit of a strange one seeing as it belongs to Google anyway but the music results will not only cannibalise some of YouTube's traffic but also divert it elsewhere too. Listening to tracks on the world's favourite video service is big business for the Tube and if you can do that straight from search, then they could lose out quite a lot. Again, it's not the only thing on YouTube but what with the public tiring somewhat of sneezing pandas, it's probably a bigger issue than you'd think.<br /><strong>Verdict - Loser</strong><br /><br /></p>
<h3>Last.fm</h3>
<p>Like Pandora, it's the excellent nature of Last.fm's music recommendation system that sets it above all the rest and, at present, that's not something that Google has on the roadmap. Naturally, if the search giant wanted to, it could put the resources into making something similar. What it does have to its advantage is the enormous database on the subject but it doesn't seem like a logical step for the company. What is a slight concern for Last.fm is that Pandora has been chosen as a partner, but, seeing as that service only works in the US, it's not such a problem at the moment.<br /><strong>Verdict - No bother</strong></p>
<p><strong><br /></strong></p></p>

					Introduces Karaoke into search<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/q1fM/google-music-search-service-launched-0.jpg" alt="Google adds music search; foretells the death of another industry" />				</p>
				<p><p>Google has added music search to its growing search offering as it attempts to help people find what they are looking for quicker.</p>
<p>"Every day we get millions of search queries about music. You want to know more about your favorite artists, find that new album or iconic song or figure out the name of that tune stuck in your head", says Google on its official blog.</p>
<p>Google searchers looking for a particular song, artist, or album can now do so by typing that information into the search box.</p>
<p>Results are then produced to match the query, if available, and users will be offered a preview of the song thanks to a deal with MySpace.</p>
<p>Taking the search one step further Google has said that it will also allow forgetful users to punch in a chorus or words from the song as well.</p>
<p>If that wasn't enough? Google has said that it has teamed up with Pandora, imeem and Rhapsody to include links to their sites where you can discover music related to your queries as well.</p>
<p>So far there is no word as to whether Google will implement a buy button via its Google Checkout service offering users a "buy at search" offering.</p>
<p>Google has promised the new feature to its US based searchers in the next couple of days. No word on when the service will get global support.</p>
<p>We will keep you posted.</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> The service is live in the US at <a href="http://www.google.com/music">google.com/music</a>. No sign of it in the UK.</p>
<p>?</p></p>

				<p><p>Google has announced that its <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/23653/google-labs-launches-similar-images" target="_blank">Similar Images</a> feature "is graduating from Google Labs" and becoming a permanent feature in Google Images. <br /><br />Designed to help narrow down image search results for more successful searches, one example given for how Similar Images can be useful is that searching for "jaguar" will bring users results of both the cat and the car.<br /><br />Clicking the "similar images" option under either the cat or the car will re-jig the results to display only what the searcher was seeking. <br /><br />Google had also introduced <a href="http://productideas.appspot.com/#16/e=299f4" target="_blank">"Product Ideas for Google Images"</a> stating: "With product ideas, you can post comments that will be seen directly by members of the Images team, as well as vote on ideas that others have submitted".<br /><br /></p></p>

<p>"Your friends and contacts are a key part of your life online. Most people on the web today make social connections and publish web content in many different ways, including blogs, status updates and tweets. This translates to a public social web of content that has special relevance to each person. Unfortunately, that information isn't always very easy to find in one simple place. That's why today we're rolling out a new experiment on Google Labs called Google Social Search that helps you find more relevant public content from your broader social circle".</p>

					Your network will help power your results<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images3.pocket-lint.com/images/pS3w/google-social-search-engine-announced-0.jpg" alt="Google Social Search brings your friends to the search engine" />				</p>
				<p><p>While Google waits to <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com//news/28131/google-signs-twitter-search-deal">implement Twitter search</a>?functionality into its organic search it is testing yet another social element; Social Search.</p>
<p>The new offering, which will launch in Google Labs shortly, promises to allow users to see results for queries from people in their social network.</p>
<p>The system will work by tying in your contacts from various services like Twitter, Facebook, Flickr or Friendfeed, and give you results from that data as well as the Web as a whole.</p>
<p>The idea is that if one of your contacts has been to New Zealand for example and has referenced that somewhere on the Web, that search would show up in your search query, allowing you to gain relevant information from someone within your network rather than random people on a site you've never heard of.</p>
<p>However, in order to use social search, users need to be logged into a Google profile, from there, the search engine can then suggest connections to those listed as friends by crawling your Gmail contacts for example.</p>
<p>The system is expected to launch in the next couple of weeks.</p>
<p>Tuesday also saw the launch of <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com//news/28127/twiiter-status-updates-microsoft-bing">Twitter on Bing</a>, allowing users to search Twitter feeds via the Microsoft search engine.?</p>

					Facebook to come, but later<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images2.pocket-lint.com/images/pRFa/twiiter-status-updates-microsoft-bing-0.jpg" alt="Twitter comes to Bing" />				</p>
				<p><p>Microsoft's digital head Qi Lu has confirmed, as rumoured earlier today, that it has signed a non-exclusive deal with Twitter and Facebook to provide status updates to its Bing search engine.</p>
<p>The two new services will allow users to use Bing to search tweets in real-time posted on the micro-blogging service.</p>
<p>"We have two deals to announce", said the demo man at the Web 2.0 summit conference. "The first is Twitter, which will be going live in the beta straight away, the second is Facebook which will come later".</p>
<p>Both systems will access all public data, leaving direct messages secure and out of sight.</p>
<p>The tweets will, however, be vetted for quality and factor in a number of features including quality of tweet, the length and relevancy of the tweet, the twitter users social standing (ie number of followers) as well as the tweet is being re-tweeted.</p>
<p>Users will be able to search tweets via a real-time stream as well as a cloud trending option.</p>
<p>Microsoft has also said that it will strip out bit.ly links turning them back into full url's so users can see what the domain is before clicking on it.</p>
<p>The beta, which can be accessed via <a href="http://www.bing.com/twitter" target="_blank">bing.com/twitter</a> should be live in the next hour.?</p>
<p>UPDATE: Google has now said that it will be offering <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/28131/google-signs-twitter-search-deal" target="_self">Twitter status updates </a>as well.</p>
<p>?</p></p>

					Live search coming to Microsoft search engine<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images3.pocket-lint.com/images/pRzr/twitter-facebook-microsoft-bing-deal-0.jpg" alt="Twitter and Facebook Status updates coming to Bing" />				</p>
				<p><p>Microsoft is about to sign up both <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/twitter" target="_self">Twitter</a> and <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/facebook" target="_self">Facebook</a> in a non-exclusive deal to help improve the <a href="http://www.bing.com" target="_blank">Bing</a> search engine.</p>
<p>The deal, which will see both sites integrate their real-time feed of status updates into the Bing search engine is, if true, expected to give Microsoft's fledgling offering a massive boost in the real time search game.</p>
<p>According to All Things Digital "sources, Microsoft (MSFT) digital head Qi Lu will announce the deal onstage in a few hours at the Web 2.0 Summit".</p>
<p>Although the article states that neither offering is expected to be up and running for weeks if not months, it does expect Qi Lu to demo the new project at the conference.</p>
<p>However, the article also states that any deal is expected to be non-exclusive suggesting that similar offerings could be coming to Google as well.</p></p>

				<p><p>It's being reported that Twitter is currently in mega-money talks with Microsoft and Google, discussing using Twitter content in searches separately with each search giant. <br /><br />All Things D reports: "According to sources familiar with the situation - Twitter is in advanced talks with Microsoft and Google separately about striking data-mining deals, in which the companies would license a full feed from the microblogging service that could then be integrated into the results of their competing search engines".<br /><br />Microsoft's <a title="Bing" href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/25242/microsoft-bing-searches-twitter-feeds" target="_blank">Bing</a> already encompasses some Twitter content in its results while Google recently announced <a title="Hot Trends" href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/27537/google-makes-real-time-move-hot-trends" target="_blank">Hot Trends</a> that offers real-time results for popular search terms, so it's a little unclear at this stage what the talks may result in.<br /><br />All Thing D's sources say "a number of scenarios are being discussed to compensate Twitter for its huge and potentially valuable trove of real-time and content-sharing information, generated from the data stream of billions of tweets from its 54 million monthly users".<br /><br />We will keep you posted.</p></p>

				<p>In the States and in Japan, Google users can take advantage of a new Google search feature that the search engine says "will help you stay in touch with the latest trends on the web".<br /><br />Google's "Hot Trends", which lists the fastest rising searches on the web at any given hour, now ranks such trends in a top 100 within search results. <br /><br />When users search Google.com and the query matches one of the top 100 fastest-rising search terms, Google shows a graph at the bottom of page, with links to further info.<br /><br />"We hope it will help you keep up with everything there's to know about the latest trends online", says Google. <br /><br />Commentators, meanwhile are suggesting it's an attempt to stay real-time relevant in the face of competition from Twitter. </p>
