Hashtags

Twitter Search: Hashtags
#Hashtags: - “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.”
- Acts like a reference label - e.g. #health20 for the Health 2.0 Conference
