Most people nowadays use the internet to find out today's trend or the hottest and latest buzz about someone or something and thus, the birth of real-time search engines. Real-time search engines are the newest form of Internet media that people use today to achieve real-time answers and results.
Of course many are still relying on the traditional search engines that are more of reference websites. Unlike real-time search engines, the traditional search engine provides additional details and information to something that we know about. It provides the user every possible result that it can search all over the web regardless of the age of the link.
Real-time search engines, on the other hand have the ability to scout for status updates, comments and links that people post every day. You use a real-time search if you want to know "what's hot" or popular as of the moment as it gathers information about what others think about a certain topic. Take for instance during the past catastrophes that happened in several parts of the world, updates and news spread quickly because a lot of people have posted updates on Twitter and Facebook, two sites contributing an important role in real time searches.
Since more social networks are now capable of posting status updates, a lot of real-time information will be posted each day.
Real-time search is catching the attention of people because of its speed and convenience. Not everyone is facing their television all the time to get news updates and information, but most of us frequently have access to the web and carry Internet-capable devices which make it more convenient and fast to get updates about a certain topic or trend.
