Google and Twitter on Friday announced their partnership placing tweets in online search results has been extended to desktop results.

The two firms agreed in May to place tweets in Google mobile search results, and that the same would apply to desktop at a later time.

Times of India reports that Google and Twitter had a similar arrangement dating back to 2009, but tweets disappeared from Google search results in 2011.

The agreement could help boost engagement at Twitter, which has seen growth sputter compared with other social networks. It also brings fresh content and commentary from Twitter to Google search queries.

In an update on Friday, Google’s Ardan Arac said, “We’ve extended this to desktop now too, and in English everywhere.”
