Twitter's search isn't actually bad, even though I still can't find my old tweets.

Anyway, here is the search page for every tweet I've ever made with the word "aerosol":
twitter.com/search?q=aeros…

Go to that page, chg the username/search term (in the box), and voila, new search!

Grr. Twitter truncated the URL.

Right click the blue link, or remove the space from this:

twitter .com/search?q=aerosol%20(from%3Ajmcrookston)&src=typed_query

Idea: Go to the page, then bookmark it for easy access.

Advanced search page can be accessed directly here:

twitter.com/search-advance…

You can also run a search, and in the results page use the three dots to the right. Tricky to find.

Twitter's advanced search help page:

help.twitter.com/en/using-twitt…

Full list of search operators is here:

developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitte…

Note that OR must be capitalized.

Quick ref

x y ---> “x” and “y” (default)

“x y” ---> exact phrase “x y”

x OR y ---> “x” or “y” or both

x -y ---> “x” but not “y”

#x ---> hashtag“x"

x :) ---> "x" w/ positive attitude
