My previous blog post about Google’s new Search Plus your world update was mostly critical – Having read a number of blog posts/articles and had a play around the new Google, I have now calmed down and come to the conclusion that: as a search engine marketer I should start thinking about how this beast actually works to best help our clients or our sites get found through the SERPs.

Real Time Search Looks Impressive
Google finally unveiled its real-time search results today and I have to say that it is so darn impressive I’m blogging about it. So what is real-time search? Well, according to Google:

Google’s search options adds an extra layer of dynamic filters to the search engine result page (SERPs) – with a single click a search result has extra filters (on the left) that shows your search query results as Video, Forum posts or Review only results.
