Speaking of breaking news on Twitter, there's a new site called Breaking Tweets (http://www.breakingtweets.com and @breakingtweets) that tracks world news and tweets about that news across the globe. That includes tweets in foreign languages as it translates them to English. Just started the site yesterday and would love if you could check it out. Perhaps you could help spread the word about it as well? I expect to update daily. Thanks.

To search Twitter for breaking news, just access VeryRecent. Very Recent is a very simple and relatively new buzz news tracking service.
