PicoBuzz is a basic application that allows you to see what the key “buzz” words are that are being tweeted on Twitter. The site consists of a chart listing in order the top 20 buzzwords.
It lets you know what the word’s last position was and shows you the icons of the users who typed those words which you can scroll over to see what their original tweet was. Currently “eurovision” is in first position, apparently because of some song contest. Indian Jones is in second because of its recent release in movie theaters. In the future, the site will be implementing AJAX so that the page wont have to be refreshed, and there will be more time frames to check out stats for besides today and yesterday’s buzz. They are also planning on adding more stats to the chart and other microblogging platforms to be analyzed besides Twitter.
