Can somebody explain what it means in twitter when people use the # symbol? - Arctic9 - 11-15-2012 08:49 AM

The hope, usually, is to produce a Trending Topic, one that is so popular it's listed on the Twitter front page. (It takes a lot; as I write this, there have been 20 new tweets in #omgfacts.)
