Bing scores with two big social deals:  Bing is announcing today a deal to integrate real-time content from both Facebook and Twitter in search results.   “The deal is a definite blow to the dominant search engine, since–for the first time–data will be available on Bing that is not on Google,” writes Kara Swisher.  And by melding Facebook and Twitter together in an integrated search, Bing is creating new value and is becoming, in a way, the “cooler” search engine.  Stay tuned: it’s a safe bet that Google will ink its own deals in the next few weeks.

Update: Google has done a Twitter deal, too
