I put this together pretty quickly in just a few hours, so I’m sure there are plenty of bugs, but I wanted to get it out there as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

here is the link: \u00a0http:\/\/www.twittfilter.com\/iranElection.php#<\/a><\/p>\n

A problem I have with twitter search during the election is some many RT’ed messages saying the same thing. \u00a0So I decided to extend the normal twittFilter search page to hide any message where 90% or greater of the content is the same per search. I also added per person grouping in search. \u00a0So if someone is doing a LOT of posting, you will only see the first three posts. \u00a0I also have #iranElection, #gr88, and #iran9 as default searches. \u00a0You should be able to change to whatever you want and it will remember it using cookies. If there are better tags, please let me know.<\/p>\n

The filter is not perfect and right now it errors to show more information then less. I will try to improve it over time.<\/p>\n

Let me know if you find any bugs or anything I can do (thats quick) to make it more useful.

BTW, for some reason, in IE, it renders the 3rd search column under the second one. I’ll have a look at that in the morning. \u00a0Also, IE has other odd JS issues.<\/p>\n

Future, extend removing duplicate across searchs.<\/p>\n

Create a div to show duplicates if the user wants.<\/p>\n
