Twitter to support location-based trends with new API


Twitter is adding what could become a powerful new source for news and things to do.

That could make mash-ups like the one pictured above from Trendsmap quite powerful. (Trendsmap shows the most buzzed-about terms on Twitter for different cities around the world.)
