Why Google search does not treat the @ sign differently given the rise of Twitter? For example @google and google give me the same results.
Actually, this is a considerable choice as Google did not want an index email addresses, at least. One does not want somebody scraping Google to find a whole lot of email addresses. So it's really a thoughtful option not to index the @ sign.
May be its over time starting to treat that differently, but for now, that has not been a well known thing or a request that Google had heard enough, which they would probably put resources into it at present.
