How Twitter Search creates new opportunities for business feedback, tracking news in real time and discovering trends.
First, a quick message from Common Craft.

It seems like everyone is using Twitter these days.
00:00:14
You know, sharing little messages with each other on phones and computers.
00:00:17
It turns out that all these little messages, if you look at them all at once,
00:00:21
become an easy way to find people, news, and trends.
00:00:25
This is Twitter Search in Plain English.
00:00:30
Let's get started by visiting Twitterville.
00:00:34
This town represents all the people using Twitter.
00:00:37
There are millions of them, and they're constantly talking to each other
00:00:40
and sharing information 140 characters at a time.
00:00:43
The typical townsperson only sees a part of the messages, or tweets, and that's fine.
00:00:46
There are way too many to follow them all.
00:00:51
But if all the tweets could be captured and organized all the time,
00:00:54
amazing things could be possible.
00:00:57
The town would have a resource for knowing what's interesting and who's talking about it.
00:01:00
This is what Twitter Search has done for Twitter.
00:01:04
It captures and organizes every tweet so it's possible to find people
00:01:07
and specific information in real time.
00:01:11
For instance, meet Roy of Ice Cream by Roy.
00:01:14
Other than the people who came to his store,
00:01:18
he could never hear what customers said about his ice cream.
00:01:20
However, because everyone in the town uses Twitter,
00:01:23
he can now search for Ice Cream by Roy and see tweets from people who mention his product.
00:01:26
Then he can reply to say thanks or follow their future updates.
00:01:31
Twitter Search helps Roy listen to customers and make the flavors they want.
00:01:36
It's also a great way to learn about news.
00:01:41
When an explosion is heard outside of town, the townspeople report it in real time.
00:01:44
This means that Roy can check Twitter Search to find a constant stream of information,
00:01:49
sometimes from the very people who experienced it.
00:01:53
He can even limit the results to tweets near a specific location.
00:01:56
It's news as it happens.
00:02:00
Every minute of every day on Twitter, people are using some words more than others.
00:02:03
Maybe the town has a new mayor, a concert came to town,
00:02:08
or the same joke is being told over and over.
00:02:12
If the most popular words could appear on a sign,
00:02:15
a person just arriving in town could get a feel for what was interesting to the residents at the moment.
00:02:18
On Twitter, the most used words are known as trends,
00:02:23
and they're a great way to see what's interesting on Twitter.
00:02:26
You can always find up-to-the-minute trends on your Twitter profile or at search.twitter.com.
00:02:29
Clicking a trending topic shows the most recent tweets that include that word or phrase.
00:02:36
Sometimes, Twitter members work together and use a specific keyword,
00:02:41
called a hashtag, to connect related tweets.
00:02:45
For example, people talking about elections may use the hashtag vote to create the connection.
00:02:48
This way, by including the vote tag, Roy can make sure his tweet is part of the discussion.
00:02:54
If enough people use the tag, it may become a trend, attracting even more people to the conversation.
00:03:00
Of course, tracking these conversations is easy because Roy can search right on his Twitter profile,
00:03:06
and if he wants to see results over time, he can save the search.
00:03:12
With Twitter, all the small messages are useful when shared between people,
00:03:16
but by organizing all the tweets and making them searchable, we can learn what's on the minds of millions.
