The only thing comparable to Google searching is Twitteer search. Case in point: this morning after reading the sad news of director Tony Scott's death, I inevitable felt morbidly curious about what the circumstances or motivations might have been. Plenty of other people will too, so eventually it will find it's way into the press, but only after days or maybe weeks. So, I opened Twitter on my iPad and searched for 'Tony Scott rumours' and there was the likely answer among the first few results. Of course it was only unconfirmed conjecture but enough to satisfy my curiosity so I wouldn't spend any more time thinking about the event.
Tweets are more instant and just more human IMO. It means you can better leverage your understanding of human behaviour when you try to search for things.
