New Twitter Search Tool

Twitter is the social media tool that I use the most on a daily basis. Today I found TweetTabs which has been developed by Tweetmeme which shows the hottest trends on Twitter. What Tweettabs does is to allow you real time search on an array of search terms. I have been using it today and I have to say I like it, especially for latest news.

Recently I haven’t been using Tweetdeck as much as I found that I was so absorbed by the real time updates from my twitter friends, it was starting to affect my productivity and as much as I enjoyed being distracted, it was not great for the bank balance! This means that I have my twitter tab open and go there every now and again to see what is happening. Tweettabs has helped me because it fills that gap which Tweetdeck filled with up to date search results.

Tweettabs describes itself as

“TweetTabs is a way of viewing the latest tweets of upcomming twitter trends or searches.

Use the search box to easily search twitter for tweets, TweetTabs will automatically update each tab with new content when it comes in.”

My first thoughts are

I love it because it is simple

I love it because it is browser based although you can download an application

I love it for news items

See what you think!
