How could I mention Twitter without talking about hashtags?
For those of you still in the dark ages (BT), hashtags are tags within your tweet (prefaced by #) which link to all posts mentioning the same tag. For example, if I mention an article about elephants, I can use the hashtags #elephants, #conservation, #wildlife, #animals, etc., in order to attract people searching for relevant tweets.
The most popular topics are listed to the right of your Twitter homepage. Don’t worry about clicking on any of them, though. The third most popular trending topic right now is #icheatedbecause. ‘Nuff said.
Like anything else in this beautiful world, hashtags are a wonderful idea which we should use wisely and in moderation. And any which use “your” incorrectly (#yourstupidbecause) should be immediately deleted.
