Yandex-Twitterhttp

Twitter and Russian search engine Yandex signed a partnership that will allow Yandex to to show the full feed of all public Twitter posts in its search results almost instantly. This is because Twitter becomes an increasingly important source of real-time information in the worldwide Web.
Last Year Google and Twitter failed to renew a deal for the search giant to include Twitter results in its feed. So Yandex got a lucky chance to make a deal with Twitter.
Yandex is Russia's largest search engine, occupying some 63 percent of the market. Google trails behind with a 23-percent share.
