It's been more than half a year since Twitter purchased the search engine Summize . And it looks like Twitter is finally starting to integrate search features into the micro-blogging service. You can already search for messages across the public Twitter network in near-real time by visiting search.twitter.com . But soon you'll see a search box and Trends drop down menu on the main page of Twitter.
Right now these features will only show up for a handful of random Twitter users. But if the test is successful, Twitter could roll out the features to additional users soon.
If you don't want your messages to show up in searches, you can click the "Protect my updates" button in your account settings so that only people who you have approved will be able to see your messages.
