Abstract
The huge amount of social data actually available and everyday produced demands for discovery techniques to mine prominent information topics. In this paper, we present topic-clouds as a solution for thematic, conceptual exploration of social data, with specific application to microblogging posts of Twitter. Topic-clouds are the result of a discovery approach based on classification and abstraction techniques to mine the most prominent topics that emerge from a possibly-large set of social data.
