Facebook Trending Coming Soon

Soon Facebook profiles will start seeing the latest in conversations and interests when it releases a new Trending feature, similar to what has been on Twitter. The purpose is a move towards finding content that users want such as the recent Nelson Mandela and Golden Globes news.
The new Trending category will appear in your News Feed on the upper right hand corner like this example in a photo from Facebook’s news blog:

While Twitter tracks the trends that are popular from user tweets, Facebook will showcase what their users are posting on and sharing, but also will focus on what you personally are interested in, according to their announcement.
Currently the roll-out is limited to mobile users and select profiles in various countries as Facebook tests the new feature.
Have you started seeing Trending on your Facebook profile?  I don’t see it yet on mine…
Do you think this will enhance your experience?
