: This new plan of Twitter could change search in many ways. Of course, the average person looking for information is still going to want more than a 140 character mini-reply.

: Some of the changes planned by Twitter look useful like indexing content in the tweets, it may pay to use a link shortener like a.gd as this allows you to edit link URLs with words.
: Twitter is still new for many. I can't believe their going to change it again. I imagine google will asimilate any changes to it just like the Borg. Go twitter!
