EDIT [4/7]: Updated screenshot just because I felt like doing that today.
EDIT [4/3]: So you thought this was an April Fools prank? Let me just say right here that you’re wrong! Who’s the one to laugh now?! (OK, I kid.)
You all knew it was gonna happen: somebody would waste some leisure time throwing together a microsite that answers one very simple, burning question:
Is Justin Bieber Trending?
Well, I’ve taken the pleasure (of three nights) to do just that. With a pretty apt URL too: http://isjustinbiebertrending.com
As in the disclaimer (‘why is this?’) at the bottom right of the site, here’s why I even bothered:
Gotta say this so nobody comes after me for the wrong reasons: I have nothing against Justin Bieber.
He can sing, make albums and be famous for all I care, but it’s his obviously immature, prepubescent fangirls (and fangayboys) who are polluting our Twitterverse with useless tweets and a useless trending topic (or sometimes even two or three).
This is my response to the thousands of young girls whose lives seem to consist of nothing but Justin Bieber. And a source of entertainment for the people who are wondering if he ever falls off the trending topics. To answer that, yeah, he does… just not always for long…
