Advanced Twitter Search Operators

Since Search in twitter has become a huge deal of relevant real time information source, this special operators for advanced search are very handy to find the tweets we need. I wonder hoe twitter filters the positive and negative attitude :o

Operator Finds tweets…
twitter search containing both “twitter” and “search”. This is the default operator.

love OR hate containing either “love” or “hate” (or both).
