Why has "Realtime" search stopped working
On Mozilla Firefox Start Page, there are 6 options and a drop-down menu; Web, Images, Videos, Maps, News, Shopping and More, the Drop down menu (More) offers "Realtime" which when selected, produces the following;
404. That’s an error.
The requested URL /realtime?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&hl=en&tab=wY was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Google allows its contract with Twitter to expire, and plans to launch something of its own.

Meanwhile, it hasn't yet updated the toolbar on the "skinned" version of Google.com that you're using (the old Firefox 3 start page).
Hey, thanks. At now least I understand why. Realtime searches are a great way to spend a wet Scottish afternoon - hope the next google incarnation is as much fun.
By the way I'm running Firefox 5.0, not the old Firefox 3.

Firefox 4.0 & 5.0 have a different Firefox Start Page - about:home - than earlier versions used - http://www.google.com/firefox . You're using the former Firefox Start Page as your own "homepage", no problem doing that, but that was what Jefferson was pointing out when he said (the old Firefox 3 start page).
