Since Twitter has introduced the themes in the aesthetic trend of 2008 one of the most frequently asked questions was: Why is not X a trendy theme? The issue was raised several times, justinbieber by # and # # adamlambert a flotilla, and # # iranelection demo2010.
This week is the turn to WikiLeaks, with a little 'people to wonder if Twitter is preventing Wikileaks #, # cablegate and other issues appear between the trend themes.
The answer: Absolutely not. In fact, some of these terms as Wikileaks and # # cablegate are trendy both globally and in other specific areas.
Given the widespread confusion about # Wikileaks want to give a broader explanation of how to measure trends on Twitter and why some issues can not be promoted.
What is a Trend?
Themes Trend Twitter are generated automatically by an algorithm that tries to identify topics you are talking now more than ever before. The list of trends is designed to help people discover the "newer" between the news of the moment in the world, in real time. The list of emerging trends captures the hottest topics, not just what is most widespread. To put it another way, Twitter promotes the new popularity (also known as BuzzFeed in this excellent article and infographics ).
What makes a trend a trend?
Twitter users exchange over 95 million daily Tweet, on any theme imaginable. We trace the volume of terms mentioned on Twitter regularly. Some themes come from the list of trends as the volume of tweet on a specific topic at a given time increases dramatically.
Sometimes an issue does not enter the list of trends because his popularity is not as widespread as it seems. And sometimes words do not become very popular trend because the speed of talk about these not detached enough from the average level during normal days. This is what is happening this week at # Wikileaks.
