Ryan McGrath and Brandon Leonardo.
We believe that Twitter's doing something awesome these days. It's easily one of the biggest hubs of activity on the internet, and with that comes a wealth of information that's available in real time. As important as Twitter is as a "Communications Platform", Twitter's purpose as a Search Engine is rapidly becoming one of the most useful and valuable parts of Twitter.
After searching for something similar to a Twitter Search badge to easily leverage that search engine, and failing to find anything, Brandon decided to build one himself. While Twitter does provide badges and widgets, the current badges and widgets merely display YOUR latest tweets. We wanted one that would showcase search results from Twitter's stream, and we wanted it to be completely plug and play.
Both Brandon and Ryan have experience with the Twitter API (Brandon built StopTweet, and Ryan has a Python Library (Twython) that wraps Twitter's API). The combined experience paved the way to a system where the Search keywords and design system are customizable. Now, you can customize your badge to match the look and feel of your website or blog. We offer these badges completely free of charge. Have a blast!
