Hastags
Hashtags are a community-driven convention for adding additional context and metadata to your tweets. They’re like tags on Flickr, only added inline to your post. You create a hashtag simply by prefixing a word with a hash symbol: #hashtag.
Uses:
Conferences: “rubbishcorp’s slides on guff were great. #presentation”
Events: “#blogfest blogfest is ace.”
Memes: “My #themeword for 2008 is dinosaurs.”
Context: “I can’t believe anyone would bother reading this far #rubbiscorp.com”
Recall: “Buy some fags (cigarettes). #todo”
So there.
