I wasn't really all that impressed. I searched on the word nature - 2 or 3 of the good nature tweeters I follow came up, but I know of a lot more who didn't appear and some of the people who came up seemed highly irrelevant. I had more success using #words. I suspect there is no substitute for the legwork of finding a few good people to follow, reading their tweets, investigating the people they RT, and then following the ones you like. Checking out the tweets of every new person who follows you can be interesting too, but not as good as the other method. If you want to do the work you can browse through the followers of the people's who's tweets you like best to find more interesting folks, but that is highly time consuming. I tried it out.

The top tweeps feature for particular keywords is a good one. Its also showing related content from Google, Youtube etc. If Google is bringing in the microblogging search engine very soon, then these all services would get a slap, but till then Tweefind is a good engine.
