It’s no doubt that Twitter has swept the world off its feet and proven that it deserves its spot on the social networking throne. Just yesterday, What the Trend, a division of HootSuite Media, compiled a list of top trending topics on Twitter out of over 200,000 topics. Counting down to the top spot, the top 10 trending topics of 2011 are:
10. One Direction
9. Japan Earthquake
8. Britney Spears
7. Super Junior
6. Christmas
5. Jonas Brothers
4. NBA
3. Lady Gaga
2. Soccer/Football
1. Justin Bieber
Unfortunately, it looks as if no one has been able to find a cure for that darn Bieber fever. And the Jonas Brothers at the number five spot? Are we positive this isn’t the results for 2007?
Anyways, if you head to HootSuite’s website, you can also check out more specific categories of trending topics such as musical artists or news events. What better way to look back on 2011 than in trending Twitter topics?
