Can anyone create a hash tag for twitter? - Philip Augustus - 11-15-2012 08:46 AM
Can anyone create a hash tag for twitter?
How is it done?
Just start putting #something in messages?
does it need to be registered somewhere?

Anyone can. You just use the # symbol and it's just a way of putting a common word in related tweets so that it can possibly become a trending topic (a word of phrase being used by a lot of people at once).
At least that's my understanding.

Nope, anyone can hash tag anything! They start "trending" if lots of people use it, but you can literally put a hash tag in front of any word or combination of words.
