What does hashtag mean? - Special Agent Fun Goose - 11-07-2013 07:56 AM
I am not familiar with hipster talk and twitter.
No, I am not trolling. I put the number pad sign on my name, and someone commented to me that my name was a hashtag?

A hashtag is a word or a phrase prefixed with the symbol . It is a form of metadata tag. Short messages on microblogging social networking services such as Twitter, Tout, identi.ca, Tumblr, Instagram, Flickr, Google+ or Facebook may be tagged by putting "#" before important words, as in:
#Wikipedia is an #encyclopedia that anyone can edit.
Hashtags provide a means of grouping such messages, since one can search for the hashtag and get the set of messages that contain it.
