Summize is a conversational search engine for Twitter. What it actually does is, it searches across Twitter conversions to match the word or phrase you are searching. The results are displayed in realtime and the latest tweets(or microblog posts!) are shown at the top.
An interesting thing(which you don’t get to see on conventional search engines) happens when you are searching for a word which is likely to occur in most sentences, such as “the”. When you click search the first time, you get a set of results with the latest tweets showing at top and immediately after that if you click search again, you get a complete new set of results. This goes to show at what speed people are active on Twitter
Another useful trick you can use with this search engine for Twitter is to find who may be sharing your blog posts in their conversations. Now, you are probably aware that Twitter automatically shorten your URLs using TinyURL. But what you might not know is that TinyURL always provides the same shortened URL for a blog post. So, what you can do is, go to TinyURL and get the shorten URL of your blog post and use it with Summize to find all the tweets that contains this URL. Smart, eh?
