Inappropriate?There's a new update on the Status Blog (link here) that says it will be unavailable for a while.
In the meantime, these alternative ways to search might help.
1. If you're searching by topics that are being tweeted, then Twitter Search at http://search.twitter.com should fit the bill.
2. if you're interested in searching for people by location, a service like http://twitterlocal.net might help
3. There's also a third-party service called Twitdir at http://twitdir.com as well as another service called Twellow at http://twellow.com. Both try to provide features similar to User Search (though I don't know how regularly it is updated)
4. If you're looking for new people to follow based on their profession or topics of interests, you may want to check out http://twitterpacks.pbwiki.com
5. If you are using one of the popular webmail services (Yahoo, Gmail, etc.), then you may be able to find your friends using Twitter's invitations feature at http://twitter.com/invitations
