Looks like Twitter is rolling out the “local trends” feature to more users as I just spotted the option in my setup.. nice (I think!). Simply put, local trends enables me to set a location of interest to me and I’ll then have the ability to view trending topics that are originating from that region. Unfortunately my local area (Denver I guess) is not yet supported – I have no idea why only several cities are included… is it that tough to include more geographic areas?? Take a look on your right sidebar under your lists and look for the Local Trends tab… optionally, you can change your area of interest so you can follow trends in many places around the globe.
