Snapchat Official Accounts

This widget shows Snaps created by a selection of Official Accounts on Snapchat. You can view Snaps from four categories: Film, Sports, Politics, and Music.

Web trends 

This widget shows you a list of people, places and organisations that are mentioned in articles that have recently surged in popularity. You can choose to view trends from US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, or New Zealand. You can select a trend to view the articles that are driving the trend.

Twitter trends 

This widget surfaces the topics that are seeing a high-volume of mentions, and which have seen a sharp increase in engagement over a short period of time from Tweets posted in the US, UK, Singapore, Peru, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, South Africa, Ireland, Australia, Brazil, or Canada. Twitter Trends come directly from the Twitter platform, and offer insight into topics that are surging in popularity amongst the public.
