Browser Island: Twitter-flow with #-tags.
Posted: May 11th, 2009 | Author: John Kuan | Filed under: geekiness | No Comments »How I personally roll Twitter.
I ♥ Twitterfox. But one of the big issues that I’ve had with the Twitterfox addon for Firefox is the lack a search function, preventing me from looking up any #-tags that I might be interested in.
I didn’t want to resort to a 3rd party client separate from my browser because I’m quite stingy when it comes down to sharing system resources.
Step 1.
Get the Add To Search Bar addon.

This is a ~wonderful~ addon that lets me put obscure site search bars (like Psydb.net) into my Firefox search bar.
Step 2.
After you’ve installed the addon, log into Twitter, and right-click on the search field on your page.

Step 3.
Add Twitter to your search bar.

Step 4.
Search for a #-tag.
![]()
Step 5.
Profit.
