The Frustration of Searching

It all started one evening when I wanted to reconnect with an old friend. I knew she was active on Twitter, sharing her love for coffee and her adventures in New York. But there was one big problem: I didn’t know her Twitter username.

Next, I thought I’d get clever and looked through the followers and following lists of our mutual friends. That turned out to be a tedious and time-consuming task, scrolling endlessly without any luck.

Feeling a bit desperate, I turned to Google, hoping that searching her name along with “Twitter” might do the trick. Unfortunately, it didn’t. I was about to give up, thinking I’d never find her, when I stumbled upon a solution that changed everything: Circleboom Twitter.
