With the news that Google CEO Eric Schmidt is stepping down and founder Larry Page is taking over in the role, both gentleman and Google co-founder Sergey Brin joined the earnings call to address questions from analysts. One analyst asked about what Google’s plans were with incorporating more social elements into the business. Schmidt deferred to Brin, saying that this was an area that Brin has been working on, which we knew from previous reports.
Brin said that the notion of realtime and social are both important to search, and the company has worked to make search for realtime and to include social elements within search such as integration with Twitter in results.
