Numerous blogs are reporting that after earning an impressive $15 million in its last round of funding, Twitter has purchased Summize, a search engine. SAI reports that the Virginia-based search engine was sold for around $15 million.
Following this acquisition, five of the six Summize employees will be joining Twitter and the company has also launched search.twitter.com, which is where users visiting summize.com are now directed.
Summize is not the first microblogging search engine, however it has proven itself to be more successful than its rivals, including TweetScan.
