Jason, in my opinion it is pretty useless. To me, it looks like a Bing Search engine plus a useless sidebar where all the noise about the searched keyword appear. Does it really provide value to the user?

We integrated Bing search with Twitter search in our realtime rank-based search engine Tweefind.com. The difference is that tweets are REALLY relevant and only those from highest-ranked users are shown (updated every 15 seconds with the new version launched yesterday). Then, you can easily switch to Bing search if you need and if you want more. Plus, we extract the most relevant and most retweeted links out from the tweets. Do you think it is more useful for users?

I would really appreciate your comment on this. Ciao

It will be very interesting to know if the links created through the Bing indexation of tweets made in twitter could be consider as a valuable link for the sites!

300k? That is amazing if that is true. This thing is built in wordpress. It probably took someone a couple hours to make this site.

The site is still down for me. Another great results for Federated Media to get a partnership with Bing, but results seem to be terrible as always.

although i am a great twitter fan, bing+ twitter looks a little messy for me. not everyone would like o get annoyed with constant updates from twitter while doing a search. Plus it has too many features which may not be useful while doing some serious search.

The categories are nice, but the UI is a cluttered mess.

And i don’t really like how the Twitter results only feed in the single most recent and start from there.

GoogleTweets.com sounds like a billion dollar idea. I hear a lot of VCs are interested in this idea. Too bad someone already brought GoogleTweets.com, maybe YahooTweets.com? or maybe TweetsTweets.com a website that displays tweets with other tweets.

“Awesome” and “Microsoft” have not been in the same sentence since “XBOX 360″. It may not break the sound barrier and the design isn’t super great but at least they are trying to combine search with real-time social stream and that is worth a pat on the back.

um, who cares… there are 50 of these popping up a day. federated media builds these for advertisers who are stupid enough to buy them. they get no traffic, some brand spends $300k to sponsor it and the only winner is federated media. remember exectweets? that seems to be doing so well that it’s not even on the traffic radar for quantcast http://bit.ly/HFS3r

when one of these sites starts to gain consistent traffic in the 500k unique user a month range, then it’s newsworthy.

I’m guessing that’s sarcasm, right? Cause, erm, they could follow it by paying Federated 100K to build GoogleTweets.com in a weekend…

Who cares who developed it? MS got it up and out the door and done using a partner. It’s still “official MS”, whatever that means.

BingTweets is a partnership between Microsoft and Federated Media.
