Australia's top Twitter trends of 2013: Harry Styles, #RoyalBaby, #QandA, #Origin top list Dami Im takes out the 2013 X Factor title. IT WAS the year Justin Bieber was beaten by a boy band, the year Kevin Rudd proved he was bigger than Indonesia and the year a newborn baby proved a bigger talking point than Christmas, New Year or Easter. Twitter has today revealed the top Australian trending topics on its social network during 2013 and there are plenty of surprises among the regular candidates. On Twitter's Australian music scene, singer Justin Bieber proved he just couldn't take a trick. The same year he lost the title of most popular Twitter user to Katy Perry, he was also out-trended by British boy band One Direction. Hot property: everyone was talking about One Direction on Twitter, Harry Styles in particular. The boy band claimed three of the top 10 spots in the music field in Australia, including one just for lead singer Harry Styles, compared to Bieber's two places. Another surprising entertainment trend saw the ABC win the title of top trending television show for Q&A, beating big commercial hits such as Big Brother, My Kitchen Rules and X Factor Australia. The latter's final episode, that saw Queensland singer Dami Im crowned winner, created the "biggest spike" in online conversation on the social network, however. Australians also took to Twitter in huge numbers to talk about England's newest prince, with the "RoyalBaby" hashtag beating all other events this year, including Christmas, New Year, Easter and ANZAC Day. New arrival ... the world - and the Twittersphere - fell in love with Prince George, aka #RoyalBaby. State of Origin also dominated more discussions than the Ashes, Kevin Rudd beat other trends including Indonesia and the name of his own party, while Queensland's #bigwet floods edged out #NSWFires for the most-talked-about news event. Twitter is the second largest social network in Australia, with more than 3 million local users. Worldwide, Twitter has more than 215 million active monthly users. The unsinkable Kevin Rudd was, unsurprisingly, a major talking point on Twitter in 2013.
