Microsoft integrates Twitter and Facebook into Bing search results

On the Web 2.0 conference in San Francisco, Microsoft announced they will now integrate Twitter tweets and Facebook status updates into the Bing search engine results. They call it Bing “Wave 2″. Basically all the public Twitter information and the publically available Facebook will become accessible and searchable in real-time.

The New York Times reported Microsoft had paid Twitter for the right to integrate the tweet data into the Bing search resuts. On the other hand, the deal seems to be non-exclusive. That means that Google could basically do the same.

See TechCrunch and New York Times.
