Blow up on Twitter (5)

I believe the answer is:

trend

(Other definitions for trend that I've seen before include "Fashion; general direction" , "Popular current taste" , "General direction of movement" , "General direction in which something is developing" , "Become popular on social media" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
