Not sure if many of you follow Digg's Dialogg but there was a great interview on it recently with Marissa Mayer, Google’s VP Search Products & User Experience, who took some fairly direct questions on cloud computing, Google Wave and how Google feels about Microsoft Bing and Wolfram Alpha, and the biggest threats to Google’s survival which she calls ”complacency”.
Mayer, on the topic of Twitter makes an insightful response: “Things show up there first. And so we definitely think that including that in the world’s information, hopefully being able to search that and surface that for our users, with all those realtime updates coming in, is something that could complement our search engine for those types of queries.” She also asks the question which I like to dream about a little myself "What does the search engine or experience look like in 2020?"
