Hello.
This has been a long time coming.
A tweet is a basic unit, an atom. A Facebook update is like a tweet. It is an atom.
Not being able to search through them has been a problem.
You want to have access to all tweets, not just the freshest ones. You want to be able to search through an entire wall on Facebook, not just what shows up when you log in.
Twitter Should Hand Over Search To Google
