When you have a great product, you need to make it stand out and Google has done exactly that with its Real Time Search. Lets go back in time when Google launched this last year and honestly it made the search results page ugly. Thanks to all those Twitter updates stuffed between results, which proved to be more bothersome than helpful. Today the search giant has given a new page to the Real Time Search.

Real time is what almost every service is trying to integrate it in some way. However FriendFeed is running ahead with the idea and it all began with its redesign. Today it also put that real time-ness into its search, meaning that whatever term you search will show results that are updated with the latest updates associated to your search query.

While almost every other service, from FriendFeed to Google Search, is trying to get real time, the leading social network, Facebook thinks to the contrary. There are reports of Facebook going back to the old design and is iterating its decision to make status updates appear on users’ home page faster. Though the decision hasn’t been made in this regard, but there is definitely a discussion taking place within the circles. Now many people were against the redesign altogether but I found it better and much easier to use as it helps in getting real time news, reports on numerous things. Just like I got this news update from Eric Eldon.
