[twitter-dev] Re: Search Twitter Feed from a group of Twitters

Thanks. I looked at it but It just allows me to search for twitter feed from one user. I want to be able to search for twitter feed from multiple users at once.

There are no search within a set capabilities really in the Twitter API or Search API. There are a few approaches you can take, but all of them defer the search part of operation to you and you'll have to accept that you'll not have the full possible dataset to search against. One popular way to search within a given set of users is to assemble a Twitter List containing the users of interest, paginate through the List timeline as your needs (and the data supply) allows, and then perform the search against the tweets/metadata retrieved, acknowledging that a list doesn't comprise all of the tweets (or any of the retweets) authored by the users on the list (@replies / tweets beginning with a @mention to users not belonging to the list are excluded).
