Twitter’s New Search Feature – Names

I haven’t seen this posted anywhere else, so perhaps I’m the first to document it! (Ha)

But Twitter seems to have just launched a brand new feature with Twitter Search – Name Results.

Anytime you search a topic, Twitter will suggest 3 people to follow who share your search topic’s name. It seems anyone may appear on these as long as you are unique enough to not have your name shared with a celebrity. I appear under Bussey, but not Zach (Damn you Zach Galifikinasisisis).

Who knows if this will translate into more followers, but it can’t hurt I guess.

Update 1: As I continue to play around with it, it seems follower-following ratio plays a serious part in if you appear there or not. Those who follow few, but are followed by many seem to be exclusively in this new feature.

Update 2: Congrats Casie you appear!

Update 3: Looks like they just disabled it.

    Haha, yay you indeed! I haven’t been able to find anyone else yet… though I’ll continue searching. To command the search term “Casie” I’m sure will prove valuable!
