On days like today, (earthquake in Emilia Romagna), the search for information and live documentation about what is happening today is mainly based on two services such as Twitter and Instagram and all users can send images on the internet sharing that they are seeing in real time. In these cases, newspapers are almost no longer needed and you just need to connect, from a PC or smartphone, to Twitter to follow the updates in real time on any situation and on everything that happens in the world.
The only problem is that the multitude of information and images are shot at very fast rates, creating a certain overcrowding that can make searching difficult.
For this reason, related services that allow you to browse the images published on Twitter and Instagram become very useful, to search for what happens in a place and to be able to see with your own eyes all the photos as in a direct in real time.
So let's see 10 search engines of images and photos in real time, based on Twitter or also on Instagram and Flickr .
1) Twazzup is, for me, the best search engine for Twitter that allows you to search not only images but news in an organized way and with updates in real time.
You can search for a word like "earthquake" and filter the results for Italian tweets in order to receive updated images in real time.
The page is a continuous flow of photographs ordered in chronological order with preview thumbnails.
You can also search to find the most popular ones today.
Twazzup is also in Italian.
2) Tweetdeck allows you to search for images on Twitter and discover the most popular events every hour, with results that update in real time. In Tweetdeck you can add keywords and topics to follow arranged in separate columns on the screen.
3) Flickr always remains an important service for sharing photos and has a search engine.
Finally, I remember that the main Italian site where you can find videos shot with cell phones, smartphones or makeshift cameras, on the events of the day, with documentary videos published in real time is YouReporter.
