Making the trends comprehensible
The main thing her team is accomplishing over the years is making the twitter trends easily comprehensible. So, when the viewer sees the term, he or she can immediately understand what it is all about and what is the story behind it. The team tries to eliminate a lot of ambiguities which come with the trending tab.

The team is working on making the audience and users save time looking for the meaning and story behind the tab .

Working on difficult trends
Joanna Gearyoremus has found that her team has sometime back faced a difficult situation where the trends have two or more conversations.

So they have decided to skip the trend which has a general context attached to it like monday motivation. And the trends like these are obviously easily comprehensible.
Interestingly she revealed that twitter doesn’t specifically create the descriptions behind the trending tabs. Furthermore she added that they source their description from the organization or the people or news who have already given the description. So basically they just give the reference of the events which are trending in the news.
Furthermore she added that for her and her team it is very important that people get the trending tabs and see those which they want. And nothing is pushed down their throats just because they have given the context to it. This thoughtfulness is essential for them to work upon so that twitter can be made more inclusive.
In yet another interview Joanna has said that twitter has changed journalism and the way things used to work before the launching of this micro blogging site. Twitter has introduced the concept of citizen journalism. This kind of journalism includes citizens sharing their news and the happenings of their lives. This trend fills in the new perspective which are personal to the events and incidents which regular and traditional journalism sometimes miss. But there is always a risk of spreading misinformation through this citizen journalism. The citizen journalism is not a trained one and devoid of any such ethics of the journalism. There is always a race of speed and accuracy in this new age. This might sometimes come with the fear of spreading false information.
