Recently Facebook the giant of social networking has taken over 'Friendfeed' that was previously acquired by Google.

You may also know about what is Facebook and Google.

In simple terms Friendfeed is an aggregater of all of your social networking, blog, and other RSS updates. So that people can have all their RSS and other social networking like Facebook, Youtube, Twitter updates in one place.
And also people can subscribes to others updates and news.

So why Facebook bought Friendfeed ?
One key reason is to become a real time search engine rather than Google's regular search.
another may be Facebook wanted to expand it's services over other social networks.
Also they need to became the leader in community networking.

How it affects to Twiiter ?
Twitter is considered as the leader in real time news updates.
With Twitter people can post what just happenning here and there and others can search these updates.Freindfeed is also has a similar feature which people can do real time updates and searches like twitter.
previously Facebook wanted to bought Twitter but the deal did not continue as Twitter is not for sale at that time.

So we can come to an conclusion that Facebook wants to develop a real time search engine that is similar to Twitter. Hence it may affects the Twitter. On the other hand currently people messed up with Google's regular search and they needs to have a real time searches. Friendfeed will do that with challenging to google.
