Finding stories
Discovering trending stories
How the Trending page works: time filters, categories, keyword and hashtag search, and the three ways to sort stories.
Updated
On this page
The Trending page is the fastest way to see what the news is about right now. It lists recent stories from every category in one place.
Choose a time period
- Today shows stories from the last day. If nothing new has been published yet today, the page tells you and shows this week's stories instead.
- This week shows the last seven days.
- Archive lets you pick a month to browse older stories.
Filter by category
Use the All categories menu to narrow the list to one topic, such as technology or sport. Clear all resets every filter.
Search by keyword or hashtag
Type a word or phrase in the search box to find stories that mention it. Start with # to search by hashtag: for example, the hashtags under an article link straight to a hashtag search. While you search, an Any time option lets you look beyond the current week.
Sort the list
Top
The default. Stories covered by the most outlets come first, so the stories the wider news media is focusing on rise to the top.
Latest
The newest stories first.
Most read
The stories read most often on Ajako Taja first.
We don't use social media likes or shares to rank stories. Read more in our AI disclosure.
