Twitter has been hard at work trying to surface more of the people, places and things that you really care about. Trending topics has been a way to keep up with news, but they’re not necessarily things that you might be interested in. For the most part, goofy memes always rule the day unless there is some major breaking news happening. The company shared on its blog today that it is tweaking the algorithm to show you topics that are similar to your tastes, based on who you follow and where you are:
Trends help you discover the emerging topics people are talking about on Twitter. You can see these topics as a worldwide list, or select one of more than 150 locations. In order to show emerging topics that matter more to you, today we’re improving our algorithms to tailor Trends based on your location and who you follow on Twitter.
