@Mark, Glad you liked my little search site. I have built a few of those for people and they get pretty good results. That particular one is ranked #1 and #2 for the title in Google (which was one of the goals), they also function nicely when implemented on a Blog, Example -> http://www.cybercoded.net/search.php

I will say this though. Twitter is just like everything else. You can put the nicest wrapper you want on something, but if the contents is not what people expect, the fancy package will still only do so much.

I went to very Minimal Wordpress Themes on most my Blogs and watched as my traffic and indexing went up!

@Bruno
I know what you mean. So much to do and so little time to do it in. Give that template a try and if you need help, just let me know.

Hey David,

Thanks for the compliment! That’s a pretty nifty search tool you have there. Can’t wait to see how micro blogging is going to evolve. I just hope we all don’t have to stick a “chip” in our heads when we get there.

Thanks for the mention, glad your there !!

I think the custom backgrounds are a great idea, especially when you have skills like yours.

Elijah is on track, Micro Blogging is big, and going to be bigger.
