A few months after Facebook introduced hashtags, they’ve now launched another popular Twitter feature: trending. This new feature is only available to a small portion of US mobile users, and is still in the early stages of development.
If you are part of that small test group, you will see a tile on your mobile news feed that has trending topics (e.g. Shark Week) and if you click on that topic, you will see posts from other users (even those you’re not connected to) that have mentioned that term in their status updates.
There has been a lot of discussion as to whether Facebook trying to out-Twitter Twitter. Do you think they should stick to their old format or keep up with the changes?
