Google launches Twitter timeline search

|

Updated 7:48 a.m. PDT with additional details, and at 8:18 a.m. following a conversation with Google.
Almost everything you've ever said on Twitter is about to be discoverable through Google.
Google announced plans Tuesday to roll out a timeline of archived Twitter messages organized by topic, allowing searchers to see when Twitter activity spiked with tweets related to their search query. When the user clicks on a particular day that contained an outsized number of tweets related to that topic, they'll be presented with a scrolling list of the individual tweets from that day.
It's sort of like the timeline search feature that Google rolled out several years ago, only for tweets. Searchers will be able to start at "right now" at the far right-hand side of the timeline and scroll back through time by moving to the left.
