Twitter, the micro blogging powerhouse, is the semantic real time search pioneer. When you utilize Google for a search, the return results often include outdated information, dead links, or abandoned blogs. With real time semantic (conversational) search, the returns often include links to conversations that are happening at that moment.

Although Twitter’s internal search engine allows users to RSS subscribe to conversations down to the minute detail, the most robust tool for finding information comes from open source tool Twazzup.com.
