Custom Column
Create your own highly configurable custom column, for global and local searches, including hashtags.
Starting Feed
Every column starts with a feed. This could be your local feed, which is from people you follow, or a global search of Twitter by keywords.
Search Terms
Search Terms and Tags
Refine your search by adding search terms or #hashtags. Each line is a search field, using the Twitter Search Operators - even for local search.
Paremeters include OR, AND from:username and putting a minus (-) before the term will exclude it from the search.
Add as many searches as you want and they will be combined together into one column! Remember, each text box is a new API call - so the fewer text boxes you use, the quicker it will be!
