One of my frustrations with Twitter is that there's no easy way to track the hot trending topics within your personal stream. So, with that, I went ahead and created a tool that does just that. All you need to do is follow @Tweetertrends or simply subscribe via RSS. The app is a mashup that uses Dapper, Feedburner and Twitterfeed. It's wonky at times, still it works for the most part and is handy for tracking what's hot on Twitter today.
