YaToo: Y! Going Real Time 
By: Jordan McCollum 2009-10-29 Apparently Twitter is all search-dealt out. After deals to bring real-time info to Bing (now) and Google (later), Twitter was not the last of the big threes choice for real-time search. (But does it matter if Yahoos deal with Bing goes through?) Instead, Yahoo, almost a week behind the others, plans to go real time with OneRiot, according to TechCrunchs sources. I know what youre thinking. Who? Good question. OneRiot tracks trends on the real-time web. You can search several social sites updates from OneRiot, or you can use their toolbar to add real-time content to any web search. A search on one of their listed trending topics brought up seven news articles, all of which were listed as first shared on Twitter. They have the ten most recent stories on their main page"and when I checked, 90% were from Twitter. Hooray for catching that other 10%, Yahoo. What do you think? Will Yahoo deal with OneRiot, or will they jump on the Twitter bandwagon with free APIs? Comments Tag: Yahoo!
