Following Twitter Trends

There's a great new way to follow hot topics using iTweet.net!


Twitter just made a great addition to their Search API: Twitter Trends!

This method allows you to see the hot topics of discussion across the entire Twitterverse.  This is a neat way to keep up on breaking news, technology trends, political sentiments, or the latest Internet meme that everyone's tweeting about.

When I hear about some fresh news or tech rumor, I do a quick Twitter search before I go to any news website; it's a great way to find a wealth of links to pertinent content across the Web.

I've added the Twitter Trends method to both the iPhone and the Web version of iTweet.net.  I think it will become a fun way to keep up on current events, and to entertain myself when I'm stuck in line at the bank.  wink   Enjoy!

Leave comments on this blog, or let's talk on Twitter or Facebook.

I don’t see this “Trends” feature yet on my iTweet.  Is it being rolled out slowly?

It’s already up there, but it’s grouped with the various search functions in the Twitter Search menu in the right column.  Just click anywhere in the “Twitter Search” header to expand the menu of search options!  Here’s a screenshot:

This api feature is nice, but hopefully there will be NO(!!!) parameter for the language. wink
