Today at the Web 2.0 Summit, Marissa Mayer announced Google’s partnership with Twitter to bring the search engine real-time search results. Just hours before Google announced the partnership, Microsoft released their own Twitter search tool on Bing.

Instead of being simply a way to search tweets, Google is planning to improve their existing search results by incorporating real-time observations. Here is an example Marissa gave in the official blog post:

The next time you search for something that can be aided by a real-time observation, say, snow conditions at your favorite ski resort, you’ll find tweets from other users who are there and sharing the latest and greatest information.

This new feature isn’t available yet (whereas Bing made their Twitter search available immediately after their announcement). Google says it should be ready in “the coming months”.

Google’s Vice-President of Search Marissa Mayer has just made a surprise announcement at the Web 2.0 Expo: a new Google Labs feature called Social Search. They just gave a quick demo of the new feature.

While the details are still sparse, here is what we currently know (and we’re still updating, so check back for more information):

- The bottom of search results will soon have social networking information from your friends, like their Flickr photos or their status updates. It’s a blended search integration, similar to seeing news or image results.

- These are pulled from social networks connected to your Google Profile. The more that are connected, the more social information that will appear in search results.

- They have also improved searching for images using social networks. Images become more relevant using social networking data.

- It will launch in Google Labs in the next few weeks.

As we move forward to the public launch of Blastoff Network, it has been decided to increase the enrollment period for existing Pre-Paid Legal Associates. Active Pre-Paid Legal Associates now have through October TBA, 2009, 11:59 PM to activate their free Blastoff Network account and to sponsor new Associates who can then set up their own Blastoff Network accounts. Then, beginning at 12:00 AM, Midnight on October TBA, PPL Associates will have their two week EXCLUSIVE marketing window. No new Blastoff Network accounts will be created unless the introduction came through an Associate! Meaning, no new Blastoff accounts are created outside of the PPL/Blastoff Network Organization! We do want to clarify that individuals joining during the second phase can join Blastoff Network through a PPL Associate and can then also send invites and have others join who are not associates.

And then, beginning at 12:00 AM, Midnight on October TBA Blastoff Network will go live to other groups across the United States and Canada. And, with the time extensions above you will have had the opportunity to have already built a huge Blastoff Network organization and you’ll be creating massive awareness for Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. with your new group of non-PPL Blastoff Network members!

Take advantage of this additional time to contact your Associates and get them to activate their Blastoff Network account.

And, be sure your new recruits are also taking the time to activate their Blastoff Network accounts that become available to them

72 hours after their Pre-Paid Legal Associate Agreement has been processed. Don’t forget to take advantage of the $99 special that is available right now for your new Associates with a membership as well as the Director bonus. Month end is just around the corner and you want to be sure you continue your August momentum and push yourself as high into the commission structure as possible.

BlastOff Network Member as a PPL Associate with a Membership:

• Earn Money on your own purchases made thru your site

What does all of this mean to me?

Some of you may be more interested in the Pre-Paid Legal Opportunity while others are only interested in Blastoff Network. Some people see the great advantage of being a PPL Associate and Member and what it can do not only for their PPL business but also their BlastOff Network Business. The extra 10 levels/degrees of cash rewards; income from PPL Memberships purchased online; starting a network a full 2 weeks before the rest of the world can join – these are great selling points!

Do I have to sell PPL Memberships if I become an Associate?

NO, You do not ever have to personally sell a PPL Membership or Recruit anyone. If you would like to make the online Legal sales commissions you will need to have an active PPL Membership and have an active eService PPL Website for people to enroll on. Some people are signing up for the service strictly to take advantage of the 20 levels of cash rewards. You automatically receive 3 free months of eService when you become an associate so if you decide that PPL isn’t for you then don’t renew your web account. The next PPL Associate in your ‘upline’ who has eService will benefit from the online Membership sales and you’ll still get all of your BlastOff Network monies at 20 levels. It’s a win-win either way!

If you are going to become a PPL Associate to take advantage of the 20 levels of income earning potential and the 2 week pre-launch period then why wouldn’t you tell other people what you are doing and why and see if they’d like the same opportunity
