Twitter – How to Search Hashtags by Region

As with most of Google's products, you simply add the same operator again.

In your example, you would use:

label:php label:javascript

If you have a label that is more than one word, use quotes:

label:"label 1" label:"label 2"

Edit:

Twitter deprecated Twitter API v.1. So this info is also deprecated now. You can access the same api by using the URL https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json. Though this endpoint does not seem to be identical to the previous endpoint outlined before.

See Twiter API documentation for details.

Original Text:

As far as I know Twitter Search API is the best thing we've got as of now. And Twitter Search API supports searching timeline of any user. In fact "Search" text box of Twitter (at the top of Twitter page) uses the search API, so you can experiment using that search box.

For example searching

twitter from:yourusername

shows your tweets with word twitter .

You can use the same query for searching from your timeline, or from any users timeline. An API call identical to the example query would be

http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=twitter%20from%3Ayourusername

Note that Twitter Search API has some limitations. They are discussed at Twitter Search API Documentation.

For searching tweets from a list, I am not aware of a quick solution. You can always use

https://api.twitter.com/1/lists/members.json?slug=listname&owner_screen_name=yourusername

to get list members and construct a query manually by using the OR keyword as:

http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=twitter%20from%3Auser1%20OR%20from%3Auser2
