By using the site, you are almost guaranteed to find a site you like that you’ve never seen before. Alternatively, if you start out with a very specific query, you’re unlikely to find exactly what you’re looking for.

While some of my colleagues fall in the latter bucket, I'm somewhere in between when it comes to local search. Whether or not you personally use Twitter, or think the "statusphere" is a flowing river of dribble (there is some truth to that), Twitter Search is where the potential lies.
