TweetVolume.com - Telling You What's Hot on Twitter

In case you had any doubt of Twitter’s powerful grip over the net, here’s yet another app designed with our favorite light comm app in mind:TweetVolume. Judging from the name, you could hedge your bets that TweetVolume has to do with numbers, and you’d be right. To be more precise, TweetVolume scans and counts the number of times a word or phrase appears on Twitter. You can type up to five terms per search. The results are displayed in a colorful and comparative bar graph. The bars represent all mentions of a word/term from Twitter’s inception until the present moment. And, of course this is only from public Twitter feeds. You can also send your search to a friend—more than that, remains to be seen.

“Enter a few words or phrases and see how often they appear on Twitter”

TweetVolume is fascinating in its own right. It’s like a social measuring stick. Useful for finding out what everyone’s buzzing bout. Could be practical for researchers or marketers too, for uncovering trends, memes, hot stuff. It’s got a nice, clean lined and soothing colored UI.

Any plans on showing us the Tweets that go along with the numbers? What about a list of the top five terms at any given moment? Also would be nice to see an ‘all’ feature so that you can see how many posts actually feature all your terms.
