http://www.google.com/search... this item appeared very quickly (even now it's only 13 minutes old). - Robert Scoble

Funny how one FF post lead to another even bigger one. - Manuel Mas

Wow! incredible! - ★ Soner Gönül

I'm totally ReTweeting this...wait...no need, Google already has the scoop! ^_^v - CannonGod

"real-time". Are you saying they're indexing information delivered in real-time? e.g. long polling, comet-ish or xmpp? Or just that they're polling more often and making results available sooner? - Darren

I can't wait for google wave. Robert, can you get me an invite? - Craig Shipp

Craig, trust me, you'll change your tune once you've used it. :) - Darren

It won't going to make Google real time. - Madhav Tripathi

i rekon google have a special feed from ff, ff pushing to google, otherwise it will create a lot of useless load to see what has changed - isn't that what google was trying to do with twitter? - simran

Darren: I have no idea. I just know that Google used to take weeks to get items into its index and now is getting them there in seconds. Anyone know how they are doing this, or are they just indexing FriendFeed very quickly? - Robert Scoble

is it pubsubhubhub?!! - abdellah

Craig: I don't have a Wave invite yet. - Robert Scoble

yesterday, I post a blog. And Google show that 4 minutes ago - kang

Abdellah: Was about to say that. - Manuel Mas

I think...Google is real-time index Twitter and FriendFeed - kang

this is crazy how friendfeed is evolving, the realtime discussion here is awesome! - Adam Benayoun

we have juste to rememeber what Greader do this week ! and remember that FF implemented simple update protocol - abdellah

Google-Wave can be used as another google notebook - kang

No. Way. Craziness! - LisaDJenkins

I think google is losing its focus on traditional search which will make it less important. - Madhav Tripathi

i can't see this share in Google... - Zee.

This is what i see when i search for this: http://stash.zee.me/Picture... - Zee.

Zee: I took a slightly more direct route with my keywords ~ http://www.google.co.uk/search... ...I still think you're right, the title should be enough to find the post. - CannonGod

If they are doing something in the real-time space it would certainly be exciting. I like having Bing around. Hopefully it'll continue to spark competition around small, innovative features in an effort to out "cool" the other. - Darren

Wow, they're really gunning after Bing's psuedo social-media search. This can only be good for the future of search...hopefully! - Steve Farnworth

This post is now in Google: http://www.google.com/search... - Robert Scoble

Wade: Hurrah! This is great news for companies who want to get indexed through keeping an active blog/community through FriendFeed. Fuck buying AdSense keywords :] - CannonGod

hope no, hope that sneaky marketers will not try to screw the system and they can't do, hope that (BTW let make the supposition that FF index is integrated in Google hmm Google buying FF?!!) - abdellah

Abdellah: Absolutely - let's all vote: Google should only index posts with a threshold of comments/likes. That's an easy way to stem the spammers who set & forget their FriendFeed with a gazillion RSS feeds to all their spam sites... - CannonGod

it's not real time! it's highly related with the links through that thread about Kevin Fox. Since Scoble is being followed by thousands of people, the link of the thread is revealed by googlebot very quickly and in a very short time google sees hundreds of links to this thread so it's directly indexed in google's search results. a few thousand internal link is enough for get a url indexed in such a short time. - Eren Baydemir

It's not indexing Twitter in real time that's for sure. I just "Googled" some of my recent tweets to no avail. - JP Holecka - Jaypiddy

Holden: my posts continually show up within minutes. I've been testing this for a while. But I've also been watching others on FriendFeed and they show up slower, so you're right. Plus my FriendFeed URL has better Google Juice so mine show up higher than others do (I have more inbound links to my account and more links from people with a high amount of Google Juice). - Robert Scoble

I guess we just figured out why Google sees value in hosting a PubSubHubBub hub! Tim Bray was asking about this yesterday, but the real value is being able to know when anyone updates their content and feeding that directly into the indexers. - Eric Florenzano

gotta watch what you write on here now since it's getting to be indexed faster. - Seth Goldstein

Google continues to amaze us - Kent Courtney

Kent Courtney is now in the mix. friendfeed has made the big time! - Craig Shipp

I have seen this on a few sites, namely donationcoder.com and my own blog. At donationcoder, someone will post a question on the forum, I get the popup notification less than 15 seconds later (I am a moderator there and have special tools to make job easier), then I'll do a quick google search for answer and find the forum post on page 1 already. I have google alerts set up for anything mentioning my blog and I usually get an email less than 3 minutes after I make a post, linking to the post I just made. - April

For me, Google's ability to quickly index comments on Friendfeed seems more interesting than yet another index of Tweets like twitturly - thestaticfrost

My partner James just noticed this afternoon that thirty seconds after Stumbling a blog entry, Google updated. Very cool. - Fikisha from BuddyFeed

Nice. Nice. Nice. - Mitchell Tsai

Google has definitely changed something because both my friendfeed entries and Posterous entries gets indexed really fast! - Svartling

the downside: you find an unfamiliar word in a post, google for it, and — tada! — come up with that very post at the top of the result page. sorta makes the 'I'm feeling lucky' button less useful :) - 9000 from IM

When it comes to really fast indexing of "normal" blog posts I think it's the PubSubHubbub integration in Feedburner that Google uses for indexing really fast. I noticed that with my blogs using feedburner. Really cool. - Svartling
