A weekly summary of the chart will also be available as part of the Billboard Twitter Top Tracks chart. With the Twitter partnership, Billboard will also present an Emerging Artists chart, which will monitor the volume of shares an up-and-coming artist is receiving on the site. A similar summary chart will also be shared each week. The amount a song is shared is monitored by shares on the service via links such as Spotify and Vevo, plus with usage of the hashtag #nowplaying or some derivative - including similar terms like "listen" or "track." more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
