New feature in Twitter Introducing TwitterTrends?
ByThis is just a quick post on something that I noticed logging on to my twitter account. It doesn’t happen all the time but I do see the “trends” option added to the menu bar.
Here’s a screen shot:

It’s actually a drop down menu that show you all the current “Hot Topics” being discussed on Twitter. With a little bit a creativity this could be a gold mine for the astute marketer. You would have to be a very good spinster but it is possible to get you message out to the masses by flexing your imagination a bit.
For example:
One of the trends this past week was #SXSW (South by SouthWest) which held their 12th annual interactive web awards. As with every award that’s out there you will agree with some and not with others. By voicing your opinion on Twitter and including the hash tag #SXSW you are now part of the conversation.
Now comes the hard part. Don’t just give your opinion solicit a response by asking other people what they think as well.
Try it you may just like.
In fact you can start now by leaving a comment or event just tweeting your opinion
