Congratulations! Should you ever come to Australia do let me know, it would be great to meet you some day. Google in Sydney (as you would know) are doing a great many interesting things, which I've been following for years and participating in varius user groups and tweetups that are held at their campus here. Have a great 2010 and look forward to staying in touch with you. Best regards, Tony Hollingsworth Daniel

As a test, I hopped onto Twitter to see what I could find out about the location and magnitude of the epicenter. Needless to say, I finally threw-in the towel and headed over to the USGS (via a search engine, since I do not keep that bookmarked). I love the idea of a better exploratory search experience, though. Exploratory browsing around a general theme is a major part of my usage profile.

But the examples that are top of mind are when I used to commute regularly by train between New York and Boston. I used Twitter on several occasions to get up-to-date news about delays, sirens wailing outside of South Station, etc. I'm sure it would eventually show up as news, but timeliness mattered to me more than the benefits of curation. Ideally I'd want both. This deserves a post in its own right. But the examples that are top of mind are when I used to commute regularly by train between New York and Boston.

If I want to know what movie is playing right now, I just search for the theater. If I want to know what concerts are coming up soon, I check a ticket sales office. If there are flight delays in Chicago because of the weather, I just check the airline web page. And my Garmin already alerts me to upcoming delays in traffic. And routes me around it automatically! Without me having to read some tweet about it. So I already have RTS for the things I need in real time. I have a hard time imagining what else I need. Maybe I just lack the imagination of the rest of the blogosphere. But I don't get it. If there are times when you've needed it, Daniel, could you talk about those?

But there are times that I have needs for recent--and even as-it's-happening--information. I'm sure travelers over the past couple of weeks had lots of real-time information needs, and I wouldn't consider those needs shallow. That said, much of what I've seen on trending topics (on Twitter or elsewhere) is pretty superficial. I haven’t exactly been a cheerleader for real-time search.

I occurs to me that real-time search is inherently shallow and/or superficial. Like Twitter, it's about conversations, recent news and trending topics. It's not the place you would go for in-depth exploration. Perhaps real-time search should address the shallow and superficial use cases, where our needs are well served by more top-of-mind information. Like a dinner receipt for tonight, or which movies are on the local theater. For channel, I'd say definitely mobile. I share your excitement about search in 2010 :-) Great food for thought, Daniel!
