Aside from being a tongue twister, tracking Twitter trends is increasingly useful in spotting where conversations are happening around a given subject.
Twist does a nice job of graphing trends by ‘last week, ‘last month’ or ‘all time’, and let’s you view multiple trends separated by commas in the search box.
It’s free to use, and comes from Flaptorplurk, a search and consultancy firm headed by Diego Basch, a former senior engineer at Inktomi Search, which is now part of Yahoo!
And most importantly, Twist is now included in our great, and ever growing list of Microblogging tools for Twitter, Plurk, Pownce, Seesmic etc. So you can find the right tool for the job, here.
