Tweetbeat: Powered by social media search engine Kosmix, Tweetbeat is a combination search engine, trend spotter
and real-time Twitter client. Tweetbeat’s homepage lists trending topics along with their associated tweets, and there is a search function that lets users search for any topic that is being discussed on Twitter. Once a topic is chosen, the tweet stream updates in real time, keeping the user up to date on what the Twittershpere is saying. Users can also tweet from their own account right from the Tweetbeat interface. This is a great way to follow a breaking news story or sporting event without having to constantly refresh and alter search terms; Tweetbeat does all the work for you.
