Tweets appear in a Google search.

Google will search Twitter, but there is an add-on for the Firefox browser that makes seeing Twitter results much easier. The Twitter Search Results on Google add-on requires the installation of the Grease Monkey add-on first, but both are easy to install. Here is how.

      Before you can install the Firefox add-on, you must get the Grease Monkey add-on tools for Firefox (see link in Resources below). The add-on for Twitter search results on Google uses some of the JavaScript from the Grease Monkey tool set, so you need to install it first. Simply click the Add to Firefox button and it happens in seconds. You may have to restart Firefox.
