Google Goes Real-Time

[HardOCP News]

Google has just given its real-time search its own page. Now you can search real-time events until your heart is content.

Basically newer items

Pretty cool. Basically you can type in a search term relative to a currently occurring event (e.g. a conference, natural disaster, etc) and it will give you recent results as well as continually update with new results as they come in. You could do something semi-similar before by filtering for search results within 24 hours but this is even more current and displays search results like Twitter feeds, etc.

I just used both "regular" Google and Google Realtime Search to see if either would bring up my post earlier today about the HR-02.. Realtime Search didn't find anything but regular old Google did!! You would think the reverse would have been true or both would have had the same results!!

No filters? true free news and events? From them! LOL.
