Tomorrow Twitter will release its latest quarterly earnings figures, but ahead of that Bloomberg has word that the service is bringing its firehose of data back to Google's search results. The two have been estranged ever since 2011 when Google announced its agreement to access the Twitter firehose had expired and it would need to suspend its "realtime" search feature that included up-to-the-minute results from social media. Of course, back then Google was still going all-in on Google+, Twitter had expanded relationships with Bing and Yahoo. Now, Google has backed off of the hard sell for its social media platform and there has been significant turnover in the executives at both companies. According to the report, at some point in the first half of this year Google will again include Tweets as soon as they're posted, so there's one more reason to check for typos before hitting Enter.
