Twazzup: As I've said before, Twazzup is a very useful and flexible Twitter search tool that provides almost all of what Twitter Search does itself, plus a few columns of algorithmically generated results such as most influential tweeters on a topic, related photos, and a great list of keywords based on your search results that you can use to refine your query.
Collecta (story) is a new real-time search service that scans Twitter and many other sources, including mainstream media sites (CNN, etc.) and blogs. Its best features are its super-clean and simple interface, and the fact that it lets you run multiple searches at once, so it's great for monitoring a bunch of topics during the day.
Scoopler is another deceptively simple real-time search product that, like Twazzup, combines raw chronological results with a column of results ranked by popularity. This service doesn't have access to the full Twitter "fire hose" of data, but it does use additional methods to try to pick up more content than the Twitter Search API provides--especially items that contain links. Scoopler also lets you keep three search queries pegged to your page for quick access (although it doesn't run them in the background like Collecta does).
