CobWEBs Daily Edition – Twitter deals and the impact on realtime search
Welcome to another week of the daily edition of CobWEBs, the flagship podcast of The Cynical Bastards!
For those who don’t remember from the other episodes, this is a new format for the show as we are going to try giving you daily bite sized chunks of our patented brand of cynicism over everything in the tech universe. The show will have a rotating host schedule between Steven Hodson, Mark ‘Rizzn’ Hopkins and myself. You’ll always get two of us, you just never know which two!
Steven Hodson and I handle tonight’s duties, and tackle the big news of the day of Bing adding a search for Twitter, and how in the world did they get this far out ahead of Google? This is going to be an interesting story to follow over the coming weeks, but for now it is just mainly a head scratcher.
Push the big green button and have a listen in!

How did Bing get out ahead of Google? Simple, the SAlabs acquisition MS made several months ago (the same month you joined, in fact) – the Ho John Lee project.
