Flocking.me Search Tool Makes Twitter More Relevant
FriendFeed may be dead, but you can once again search the tweets of just the people you are following. The new service is called Flocking.me. MG Siegler over at TechCrunch explains it for us…
Flocking.me works exactly as you'd expect. Once you authenticate yourself via OAuth, you're taken to your customized Flocking.me screen where the tweets of the people you follow are displayed. Front and center is a big search box where you can search and yes, it will return results of just the people you follow. Better still, you can change the view of the results from straight stream, to stacks of tweets to fit more on the screen. And you can even turn on a map view to see where those tweets originated from. You can also filter search further using your Twitter Lists.
I've kind of stepped away from Twitter for a while. Maybe Flocking.me will make it more useful to me. I'll have to see…
