The tweet is sent through Twidroid which you need to have installed for it to work.

great ideas! i personally dont like how the new global search works now but it is handy.

what i mean by i dont like how it works is that i used to be able to open the apps tab and tipe "w" and it would show all the apps within the tab, but now if i open the tab and type it gets out of the app tab and starts a global search

yes i guess you could say its the same thing but i was used to the other option

I installed Search Calculator and selected it from the Settings page, but when I type an equation into the search box, no calculations come up... Only searches from google? Is there something I'm not doing right?

Try a reboot it worked for me!

To the Dev:

Anyway to decrease the clicks from 4 to maybe 1 or 2?

Yep. As Azralag noted, after clicking on the more results option several times (i believe the number is 5) the QSB will learn that this type of search result/suggestion is an interesting one and it will be shown in the initial list without requiring any clicks at all.
