"What the...? Flash? Why the hell would a search engine need to be use flash for an input?"
"Ohhh...OK, interesting. Wait, what? Why do I start near the bottom of the page? Ahhh, I can't scroll to the top! It keeps adding crap!"
"OK, fine, I'll explore...errr...wow, a lot of this stuff is nowhere near what I wanted." [close tab]
I searched for git, and got a lot of random stuff, like this Very Special tweet: "This Jamaican bitch next to me has no idea what her accent is doin to me rite now......She can git it doggy and froggy style."
I was really disoriented browsing through it. The scroll bars kept changing size the whole time, and starting at the bottom-right is weird for me. Eventually the content was all filled though.
Also, I couldn't copy text from the page. I tried to copy that tweet directly from the search page, but it would just display a box saying it came from twitter and giving me a button that just said "twitter.com."
It then took me to that guy's main page (not even the specific page for that tweet), where I then had to hunt for the specific tweet to copy. I should note that double-clicking doesn't appear to bring you to the link either -- you have to hit the button that displays only the domain name.
If I'm looking mainly for tweets and images, this might be an interesting tool to use, but honestly it's just doesn't fit the way I like to search.
