Searching Micro Blogging
August 24, 2007 – 1:43 pmtwitter has added a search feature. It tells me that 369 profiles have results for the search term Ireland. some may say that equals 369 irish twitters but I would say its a number reference point we now have; before we had nothing and now this is something. i over heard a figure of 3-400K users worldwide at the Cork open coffee last week. can anyone find a url to this figure? either way, twittervision.com shows twitter has the global spread aided by local numbers.

I really do see micro-blogging as the new method to communicate. The opportunity to users to basically ‘text instead of talk’ (micro-blog instead of write) is obviously inviting.
Companies too are able to benefit from this opportunity and use the RSS feed tools to display their latest micro-blogs in their entirety.
The opportunity to search these items not only helps users to find people but could also act as a source of history…. like a personal diary
