Twitter Opens Up To More Crawling, But Do Search Engines Want Its Search Results In Theirs?

Twitter is opening up its content search results — i.e., tweets and hashtags — while still preventing bots from crawling its search results for users, videos and images. Tweet and hashtag search results show via the /search path; searches for Twitter users show via the /search/users path; and searches for photos and videos show via /search/(keyword)/grid . As you can see below, Twitter is allowing Google to crawl its tweet/hashtag search results, but still blocking the other two types; Twitter’s instructions to Bing and other search engines are the same.
