Thanks John, agree on getting responses through Twitter, and essentially what we do is expand your circle of potential responders. This is of course a greater help to those with fewer followers, but is perhaps always a boost.

Never too late. Thanks, I'll check it out. Yes, sure there's a place for Q&A in the real-time space. Actually, when I need an answer to a question, with the community I have on Twitter I often find it faster to get a good answer in Twitter than from Google.

A bit late to the party here, but given the inclusion of several Twitter based real-time search engines in your list, we wanted to let you know about Replyz (http://replyz.com), which we just released to help focus on one aspect of the real-time Web: questions and helpful conversations. We're starting out by displaying a real-time searchable stream of the questions people are asking on Twitter, and enabling anyone to jump in and respond. People are already using Twitter as a real-time Q&A/conversation site, but we've tried to make it a magnitude easier. Hope you agree that there's a place for Q&A in the emerging real-time search space.

Okay thanks, I wasn't aware of that one. It seems to be a bit different in that it's t a browser plugin that works with IE Explorer and Firefox over the top of Google, Yahoo and Bing? Interesting.

I personally enjoy using Buzzdock because it is really simple to navigate around. I really want to try out one riot as well. Thank you for this great article, awesome information.

Thanks for responding to my comment. Once you take a look, you will see that TipTop is a different kind of real-time search engine. The semantic and social aspects within it make it unique. It, like other search engines, is still work in progress built by a small team. So, please do not expect too much magic from it just yet.
