Very interesting. The really smart part was the bit about ranking real-time content.
If anyone here is working on a real-time tweet-ranking algorithm, good luck. Google's going to be there too.
It would be very useful if search.twitter.com had a mode which returns tweets ranked not just by posting time, but also by the quality of the tweeter, and the quality of the specific tweet (may be gathered from RTs, etc).
