How to Search Twitter by Email Address
Twitter began as a small social networking site out of San Francisco to help people communicate. The website allows you to sign up for an account and tweet about your life 140 characters at a time. Unlike Facebook or MySpace, it is more difficult to find your friends and acquaintances on Twitter without knowing their handle. One way to search for your friends is by name or email address.
