How and why to search Twitter | Business Center | Working Mac. Twitter has quite possibly become the widest, most insightful, and perpetually open window into the minds of the masses that the world has ever seen. Its large and growing group of users post everything from news about current events to, yes, the occasional photo of what’s for lunch. All this tweeting can be invaluable for any number of uses—but only if you know how to find what you need. Why to search There are now over 200 million users who constantly post just about anything you can imagine: links to important news, complaints about a product, design tips and inspiration, favorite new bands, family photos—you name it.

Fun fact: 70 percent of Twitter’s usage now comes from outside the United States. Search basics Type your query, hit Return, and off you go.
