Abstract
A list of “hot topics” may be provided to a user to indicate information that is currently popular. A topic may be deemed popular when a large number of search queries related to the topic are entered by users. A search system may receive and analyze an electronic source of published information to determine a reason for why a particular popular topic is popular. If content related to why a particular popular topic is popular exists in multiple electronic sources of published information, text summarization techniques may be used to determine a reason for why the popular topic is popular by from among the multiple electronic sources of published information.
