  • Twitter has released its top trends for 2017, and Barack Obama, a guy on a chicken nugget quest, LeBron James and Ariana Grande took the top honors.

    Donald Trump might be disappointed he didn't make it to the list, but he was still the most-tweeted-about elected leader. Details here!

    Apart from these, LeBron James calling Trump "bum" and Linkin Park's tribute to former lead singer Chester Bennington touched millions.

    PBS' live broadcast of Trump's inauguration was the most-viewed live stream.

    Trump's Twitter account is so popular that when an employee removed it for 11 minutes, it made international headlines. The guy responsible recently came forward.
