Google hints at alliance with Twitter
London, PTI:

Internet search engine major Google may be looking at a partnership with micro-blogging site Twitter, says a media report.


The Telegraph quoting GoogleChief Executive Officer Eric Schmidt has reported that a partnership of Google with Twitter could be on the cards.

Schmidt hinted that a “partnership with Twitter could be close, although he dampened speculation that he is planning to buy the micro-blogging phenomenon,” the daily said in a report published online.

Attributing to Schmidt, the report noted that the Internet giant “can work” with Twitter without having to buy the social network site, hinting that Twitter feeds could be indexed on Google. The daily said Schmidt had held conversations with the Twitter founders about a strategic partnership. “We do not have to buy everyone to work with them,” he said.

Twitter offers micro-blogging, which allows users to send short text messages, among others, on various multimedia platforms.
