Transformed Search
Had a great Saturday with my friends. I want to share with you something about search in relation to Twitter. When you search for a person's name in the search bar in Google. It is certain that you get almost all the person's with that name. However, have you tried that in Twitter ? You will see that thats not the case. So, in Twitter if you are searching for a person's name type the name following the @ not the name given in the title. For eg type bhuyanrituraj as @bhuyanrituraj not Rituraj Bhuyan. Thats for a normal basic search. If you want to search for a person, a topic but you are not able to find in the basic search you can try the Advanced Search mechanism in Twitter. https://twitter.com/#!/search-advanced . If you want to see the highlights, news and twitter updates about a person you can use http://www.twazzup.com/ . In Twazzup also type bhuyanrituraj as @bhuyanrituraj. Our search is indexed by the word following @. Furthermore, if you want to search for tweets on a particular topic say leadership you can use a very useful engine called http://www.hashtags.org/ . My tweet on trendchange can be searched by just typing trendchange in the search bar and you will get the screen as shown below. This is a very useful tool as it will help us refine our search.
Thank you.
Search is interesting.
Warm regards
Rituraj
