Hi people, I want to use the twitter search api to search for some famous person. For instance I want to search for a particular "Mr Patrick Lee C K". I would construct my search term to be something like:
http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%22lee+c+k%22+OR+%22patrick+lee%22 However, knowing that tweets are often informal, I know that sometimes people can address him by his initials 'lck'. To increase the precision of my search, I figure it would be better if my query can associate with his company, for instance my query could also be lck microsoft. Now, i want to string these 3 search terms "patrick lee"/"lee c k"/lck microsoft together in one query. I probably will use OR. Then again, my last search term should not be a fixed phrase i.e word lck and microsoft can be some distance from each other. Can anyone tell me how should i link these search terms together inside one query? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk
