Solid Mobile Phone: Twitter Name Checker

Twitter Name Checker
Now that you're twittering, find new friends or follow people you already know to get their twitter updates too. Use Twitter's people search to find people who currently use Twitter. Search for a first, last, or user name as a starting point, and see what comes up. We use the full name as well as the user name fields to give you as many relevant results as possible.

To use people search, click on the 'Find People' link in the top navigation bar, and select the 'Find on Twitter' tab. If you don't find who you're looking for, dig deeper using some of the options suggested in the sidebar.

Find people using keywords, location, interests, and more!

A tiny, hidden gem lies in Twitter's footer navigation bar: Twitter Search! Twitter search is an incredible tool that allows you to find virtually anything and anyone by adding the ability to search for key words, locations, phrases, and more! Type in any word and you're guaranteed to get real time results.

* Want to know what people think of a new movie? Try searching for it.
* Search for any phrase ('I dreamt' is an interesting one)
* Want to know what people are saying about your company? Try a keyword search.
* Wondering who sends tweets from your area? Try searching for 'location:cityname' to see a list of people who are from that city.

The results you get from Twitter show what people are saying and doing right now!

You can translate foreign language updates into English, filter by language, post a Twitter update linking to interesting search results, and even subscribe to search results (this is like tracking keywords, but on the web!)

We also keep track of the most popular topics, called "trending topics" so you'll always know what people are excited about.

But that's not all: check out Advanced Search to do some truly amazing things, like find people within 15 miles of a given location, find updates by positive or negative connotation, find updates to a certain person or from a certain person, or even updates within a specified time period.
