There is an undeniable need to search, filter, and otherwise interact with the volumes of news and information being transmitted to Twitter every second. Twitter Search helps you filter all the real-time information.

Actually, Twitter advanced search feature is really unique and should not be taken lightly. Among pretty traditional options (exact match, language based, etc), there are quite innovative parameters: search by emotional coloring or sentence semantic structure.
Let’s overview briefly what we can do with Twitter search:
- Word-level search:
- search for exact match: e.g. ["search marketing"];
- search for any of these words: e.g. [search OR marketing];
- exclude any word: e.g. [search marketing -seo];
- search for related discussions (hashtags): [#seo];
- restrict search results to any specific language (adds “&lang=” to the query string).
- A person-related search:
- find threads by a specified Twitter user: [seo from:seosmarty];
- find threads addressed to a specified Twitter user: [WordPress to:jdevalk];
- find Tweets referencing the specified username: [search @mashable].
- Location-specific search:
- find Tweets sent near the specified location: [seo near:seattle];
- find Tweets sent within XX miles of the specified location: [near:NYC within:15mi].
- Date-specific search: find posts sent since / until the specified date (YYYY-MM-DD): [seo since:2008-06-25].
- Emotional color and semantic structure search:
- finds Tweets with positive / negative attitude: [icann :)], [mccain :(];
- search for questions: [elections ?].
- Search for useful resources - i.e. links to related pages: [seo filter:links].
