I wish Twitter's search could go back into archived Tweets from more than 7-10 days. "Saved searches" are my favorite tool. Great post, thank you!

This can provide keen insights to your company and competition, which is especially useful to sales. With Google Reader and other RSS feed aggregators this is very easy to do as well.

Plus, it could be no less effective than offline WOM, right?:) Social Media Monitoring is becomming a must for PR Departments, especially for those who choose to take a proactive approach and interact with their consumers in cyberspace, moreover when there's company E-WOM at stake.
