"Twitter is beginning testing on a new, integrated search feature with a small, randomly selected group of users.  The feature stems from the company\u2019s acquisition of Summize last year, and has since been living as essentially a separate website at search.twitter.com.\nIf you\u2019re familiar with Twitter Search, the preview that the company is showing off on its blog of the integrated product will look familiar. In a new link in Twitter's main navigation bar, you\u2019ll see the 10 most popular current trends (things being tweeted about the most at the current point in time) and a search box to query on any topic you\u2019d like.  Both of those return a list of the most recent tweets about the topic you\u2019re interested in, as well as a link to the profile of the user that tweeted it.  \n\n\n\n\nI\u2019ve been a huge user of the service since back when it was Summize, and use it avidly to monitor what people are saying about Mashable (it\u2019s a good gauge of what articles people like \u2026 and catching typos and broken links!), and we\u2019ve often written about its power as a brand management tool.  But given the obscure location of it, I wonder how many others have actually tried it out and use it regularly, especially given the influx of new users to Twitter in the past few months.\nThe power of the feature is clear.  It\u2019s not only a real-time sentiment index and chat room-like feature for different topics, but also an amazing way to address one of new user\u2019s big problems \u2013 finding people to follow, beyond the \u201Csuggested users\u201D that was recently added.  Once search goes live to everyone, the value of Twitter should become immediately more obvious, and could also help keep the company on its incredible growth trajectory.  \nAre you currently using Twitter search?
