I Like You, And That’s Why I Follow You. So, Why Can’t I Search Just Your Tweets?

The advanced part of Twitter search contains a lot of cool functionality, but it’s missing one critical checkbox.

I want to be able to search the tweets of my network. And just my network.

I’m following these folks for a reason. It would be nice to be able to tap into specifically what they think about my question or problem. Being able to see what Twitter’s 15-20 million users think about x is fantastic, but it’s not always what I need or want.

One checkbox. You can leave everything else the same. That’s not too much to ask, is it?
