Facebook adds trending topics

| Thursday, January 16, 2014 | | |

Another great functionality from Twitter is now available on Facebook. Facebook, recently rolled out trending topics that are displayed alongside of your Facebook newsfeed. The stories shared publicly are visible on the Trending.


But the fact that all the people don't share things publicly retards the trending. As the trending only contains public posts. For, now it is quite clear that maximum trending topics are from news pages or other such pages. The country of the user is also taken into consideration.

These trending feeds are customized by user interest. It is also possible that Facebook will start to place promoted post in the Trending section.
