As we wrap week 9 up and move into the next season I wanted to discuss trending. I remember when Facebook and Twitter launched and made such an impact on peoples lives in a good way. Facebook and Twitter are the largest social media tools people use today. You can get everything on there your looking for however there not the only sites to see whats going on. You can always see what's trending on other sites. In an article on Hoot-suite 5 ways to find trending topics other than twitter. It discusses other sites that are out there. One site that's one of my personal favorites is Buzz-feed. Its a good site that discusses what people are talking about and has its own comic take on it.
Also how about the number one search engine out there, Google. I use google for everything even if its for something simple or complex. On google you can always see whats trending by going on that portion of the site. You can go to google trends and put in a name of a celebrity that you heard on the radio or news and even see how many people have searched them before. It allows you to see what people are interested in or what people are talking about. This tool is great for marketers and allows them to see whats trending and what target market is interested in it. Its a good tool to get familiar with. So next time you need a new site to go to I suggest maybe trying out google trends or even Buzz-feed. Twitter and Facebook aren't the only good sites to go to.
