Whether you’re logged into the Twitter mobile site, or using an app to type your life in 140 characters, the users find that they simply can’t get enough.

Let’s take Twitter to another level now. Twitter gobbled up Summize and created Twitter.Search, and now users are able to find exactly what they want by typing in search terms. The search will highlight all the conversations and make them available to you, along with providing a list of the hottest trending issues at the moment. Well thanks to Summizer for the iPhone, this app does everything Twitter.Search does, only you don’t have to go to any URL. This useful app sits directly in your menu is quickly accessible to find quick information on what is being discussed.

Mustache Inc’s tightly packaged app is definitely made with the on-the-go user in mind, and easy enough for general users to pick up as well. While version 1.0 is currently focused on searching and trend watching, the update, pending approval from Apple, looks to offer more options making this powerful app much more useful. You can find this app for $4.99 which is a little steep compared to some of the other apps available, but for marketers, advertisers, business professionals, or avid users, the cost is minimal compared to the use that they are sure to find in Summizer.

Lately, I’ve actually been really into twitter and have been following people left and right; in return I’m getting followed.  The trouble, in my eyes, is that twitter’s search tool for finding relevant people is far from good.

Welcome to Summize.  It allows you to search, in real time, people’s tweets.  This is really cool if you are looking to meet people who tweet on topics that you are into.  I actually found out about Summize from someone who started to follow me, based on thinks I tweet about.

It’s a fast, simple site that allows you to meet and follow all kinds of new and creative people on twitter.  I’d also like to throw out an invite for everyone to follow me at, http://twitter.com/mikepanic.
