En ja. De afgelopen week zagen wij opmerkelijke trendstopics in Twitter. Net als Cowgirlie @marjolijn vroeg ik mij op Twitter af of de hashtag #tk2010 (Tweede Kamer 2010 verkiezing) wel een echte internationale trendtopic vermelding had op Twitter. Concreet: zijn wij met 200.000+ Tweeps in Nederland zo invloedrijk dat wij de internationale topics op Twitter beïnvloeden? We hadden de iPhone4 van Apple, de WK voetbal, Joran.. maar wat stond nu over de gehele Twitterwereld op #1? Het Amerikaanse Mashable.com gaf uiteindelijk het antwoord.
