San Francisco - The CIA's In-Q-Tel investment arm and Google (NASD: GOOG) Ventures invested in a real-time Web monitoring firm called Recorded Future, Wired.com reports.

The investments were made shortly after the company was founded in 2009, and are believed to be under $10 million each.

Cambridge, Mass.-based Recorded Future has developed a "temporal analytics" engine that looks at the links between documents that refer to the same people, places and events.
