Twitter has published its #YearInReview that highlights the leading topics and hashtags of the year.

The top two hashtags demonstrate as clearly as anything the diversity and breadth of what takes place on Twitter. The top one was #egypt followed by Charlie Sheen’s #tigerblood. Is he still winning?

Trying to explain Social Media is a bit like trying to describe what an elephant to someone who has never seen one.

Twitter has just put out the December edition of Twitter Stories, which highlights ten remarkable and often moving moments of 2011 that played out in part on Twitter.
