Twitter Partners with Yahoo! Japan

One of Twitter’s largest international markets will now see Twitter in its search results. Twitter has announced a partnership with Yahoo! Japan to bring tweets to real-time search results.

Twitter has had a great relationship with Japan since its early days. They translated their site and mobile apps into Japanese first out of all languages (after English), and the Japanese New Year in March 2011 set the record for the most tweets per second, at over 6,000.
