Saved searches

Users can save important search queries—including both keyword searches and any applied filters —and retrieve them again later.

Saved results

Users can bookmark results / add them to a basket, and then even search within those saved items.

Liking

Users can choose to "like" results, giving a social signal to their peers. "Liking" analytics could then be used to influence ranking.

Tagging

Users can tag content with keywords, which content owners can then use to improve data quality.

Annotations

Users can annotate/ comment on results, and of course edit and delete their own comments (but not those of others).

Mobile Support

Twigkit uses responsive design techniques to deliver a great experience across desktop, tablet, and phone-sized devices.
