Sency is a real-time search engine. This free service differs from Google in that it's not really a web search engine. It's more of a conversation search engine. The interface mimics a "dressed up Google", but the functionality couldn't be more different.

Sency searches the web (predominately Twitter at this point) for conversations related to your keyword search. Not only does it filter out a lot of the junk that comes through Twitter, it actually separates the most popular links for that search term throughout the day so you can see what's most popular at any given time.

This plugin allows you to easily add and visually customize a stream of conversations related to a keyword search into your widgetized sidebar. The plugin currently allows for multiple streams, but the service only allows for a single stream at a time. This means that you SHOULD NOT use more than one of these widgets at a time (yet).

If you have any problems with this widget, please don't hesitate to let us know. If you use the widget and like it, please rate it.
