If you are a Twitter user, you might be aware of the buggy but extremely useful "real time search" that helps you keep tab of events by the second. Ever wondered how it would be if Google offered this option?Now, if you perform a Google search, you already get detailed options to customize your search to display results that were quite recent. It was in May that Google enhanced this "time frame limited" search options. However, even with these options, the search was hardly real time - partly because the search option only had the option to display results from Any time, Past year, Past week, Recent results and Past 24 hours. Moreover, as mentioned earlier, even "Past 24 hours" ain't real time in today's era of Twitter and real time updates. So, if there were some of you who were actually looking forward to Google offering real time search results, guess what? Google actually HAS an option to search real-time. It's just that they aren't telling you this.
