Submit Hashtag Descriptions on Twitter

Add comments

A feature that we’ve had around for quite a while is the ability to submit a short description from Twitter. We’d like to call more attention to this feature as we’ve found a better way to display our contributions from Twitter. First things first: how to submit a description:

link-in-tweet

At the end of each trend notice we send out you’ll find the words “define it” followed by a link. The link takes you to Twitter with some text prefilled – all you need to do is provide a definition.

Just add your definition for the term after the hashtag and hit submit. Our bots will take it from there.

Previously, we added your description into the body of the page’s content under the Description header. As a way of saying thanks for making a contribution, we’ve decided to make it a bit more prominent.

If there are multiple submissions for the same hashtag, you’ll find scroll buttons to the right of the definition bubble.

So there you have it – yet another way you can interact with our service. If you have any suggestions for features, hit up our contact form or leave us a comment.
