Twitter Launches ‘Local Trends’ - Does This Dissipate The ‘Global Conversation’?

Twitter have just switched on the ability to display trending topics from a range of locations (or keep it Worldwide)

Countries: Brazil, Canada, Ireland, Mexico, United Kingdom, United States.

Cities: Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston, London, Los Angeles, New York City, Philadelphia, San Antonio, San Francisco, Seattle, São Paulo, Washington, D.C.

Nice to see non-US locations included at launch, though doesn’t this start to dissipate the global conversation, one of the phenomena which makes Twitter so amazing?
