One tip our grumpy editor might consider is to rely more on the follow button, and on reading the streams of individual twitter accounts, and less on the search feature.

Good tip!

I found that following the right subset of twitter users provides both quick access to world news and forms a good barometer for public opinion. "Searching" provides noise, but "following" provides added value.
