Twitter Twacking and Twemes...Im confused

I recently started Twittering and as was mentioned to me you can also (somehow) track using key words for specific content.

I dont see a way to do this via my Twitter controls so I went to twemes.com but am unclear on what to do next.

How do I track for specific key words so those Twittering about said subjects show up?

Check out http://summize.com/. It's a nice little twitter search engine tool that'll help you get a grasp on conversations had about certain terms.

For example, I often use it to search "Blue Flavor" to see what, if anything, is being said about my company.

Just type "Track XYZ" from within twitter (the XYZ being whatever you want to track).

If you then type "Tracks" it will tell you all the keywords you are tracking.

Cheers, Leif
