Video: Twitter Search Tutorial

In this OCDQ Video, I provide a brief tutorial on Twitter Search.

Key points about Twitter Search covered in the video tutorial:

  • Unlike other social networking sites (e.g., Facebook, LinkedIn), you don't need an account for read access to Twitter content
  • This is a safe way for you or your company to start leveraging Twitter for “listening purposes only”
  • You can save Twitter Search queries as RSS feeds (e.g., for viewing within Google Reader)

Jim,

Great job! We need to have more of these types of tutorials. Easy to understand and well done.

I like the mixed search with the compound term and the hashkey combined. The RSS side is often missed and makes for a great way to create a brand listening post. Google Reader is my favorite too!
