Cover Story: People nowadays tend to use the Internet, especially social media, more frequently and for a wider variety of purposes. Even though cultural spaces are using the Internet, participating, growing their audience, or locating an appropriate group of people to share their information with remain tedious tasks. The investment is mainly financial—usually large—and directed to advertisements. Still, there is space for research and investment in analytics, which can provide evidence that considers the spreading of information or finding groups of people interested in specific trending topics and influencers. The Internet demands participation and not just presence. In this work, we describe a procedure through which cultural institutions can benefit from the data analysis of Twitter’s trending topics.
