[Heineken](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hijack-socialization) just unveiled @Wherenext, a global social campaign that will help [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-the-fanta-1) users find the [hottest spots for nightlife](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/up-2-tonight) in their immediate area.

@Wherenext is like a compass for the digital age, where users can send a tweet to the account and then be directed to their next destination. Although it might seem like it would be difficult to pinpoint what's hot as it's happening, @Wherenext makes suggestions based off of real-time social media activity using algorithms to read photos, check-ins and tweets, so that you really can be sure that if @Wherenext says a place is really happening, you know it's a popular place to head to immediately.

In the coming weeks, Heineken will release details on a live televised social experiment that will pit people from different cities against one another to discover the best of a city in a certain amount of time.
