Google has introduced a new feature which enables users to search for the most recent and relevant results. In future, it will be possible to search for results within the past 24 hours, or 7 days - which renders Google more relevant than ever in terms of up to the minute news, and places it in closer competition with 'real time' search features, such as the tool on Twitter.
Google recently created a news time line, another feature which allows users to search a particular topic in context of date. It has also reportedly been in talks with the Washington Post about a potential collaboration. The company has, however, recently come under fire about its use of online newspaper articles from publishers frustrated with the company benefitting from their work .
