function showData(data1, data2) {
    alert(data1[0].max_id);
    alert(data2[0].max_id);
}

function method1() {
    return $.ajax("http://search.twitter.com/search.json", {
        data: {
            q: 'ashishnjain'
        },
        dataType: 'jsonp'
    });
}

function method2() {
    return $.ajax("http://search.twitter.com/search.json", {
        data: {
            q: 'ashishnjain'
        },
        dataType: 'jsonp'
    });
