What's new in Twitter?

Twitter has recently come up with updates with a host of new features. You can now search for anything on Twitter, and see real time results immediately. Save searches that you know you'll repeat, and use Twitter to discover what's happening in the world. To improve user experience several exciting search features have been launched by Twitter.

Search in your sidebar
Under your usual sidebar options, you'll now see the search box. Enter any word, city, location, or search operator to find tweets about things that interest you!



Try typing in Wolverine to see latest movie reviews before checking it out. If you want to get fancy, try typing search operators directly into the search box. For example, near:"san francisco" within:5mi shows you tweets from everyone within 5 miles of San Francisco!

Saved Searches
If you think you'll search for something more than once, you can simpy save it. Clicking on the link of a saved search will show you a view of all real time tweets. You can save up to 10 searches, which are easily removable- just click the red x next to "remove this saved search."



Click the Saved Searches tab to show or hide your saved searches.

Trending Topics
With the new search integration comes a new tab for trending topics, which lists the top 10 topics people all over the world are tweeting about. Click the Trending Topics tab to show or hide the topics.

Collapsible Following bar
If you have a lot of saved searches, or you'd like to see trends instead of your following mosaic, you can now hide the photo grid of people you follow by clicking on the Following tab in the side bar.

RSS feeds for search queries
Add a query for a favorite search to your feed reader to see certain tweet searches without logging into Twitter. Click "rss feed for this query" to grab the feed and add it to your favorite feed reader.
