Atualmente as redes sociais fazem parte do dia a dia das pessoas, sendo que para muitas
delas essas plataformas tornaram-se imprescindĂveis. Quer seja por mera curiosidade ou por
uma necessidade imperiosa de partilhar com o mundo as suas ideias ou pensamentos, a
verdade Ă© que as pessoas utilizam cada vez mais as redes sociais.
O trabalho descrito neste documento pretende explorar uma dessas redes sociais, o Twitter,
mais propriamente atravĂ©s do estudo das suas tendĂȘncias do momento ou trending topics
que são expressÔes referidas pelos utilizadores a uma taxa superior em comparação com
outras. SĂŁo descritas algumas das caracterĂsticas do Twitter e dos recursos disponĂveis para
programadores.
Para alĂ©m do estudo detalhado do Twitter, sĂŁo extraĂdos dados de diversas fontes,
destacando-se o próprio Twitter, mas também outras plataformas e jornais online.
Posteriormente é feita a anålise desses dados através da verificação da evolução das
tendĂȘncias ao longo do tempo nos diversos locais em estudo e ainda atravĂ©s do cruzamento
de dados das vĂĄrias fontes de dados, com anĂĄlise dos resultados obtidos. Na anĂĄlise efetuada
sĂŁo analisadas as tendĂȘncias considerando algumas mĂ©tricas, a sua globalidade, a relação das
tendĂȘncias com tĂłpicos dos jornais online e ainda a sua periodicidade.
