It's called a "hashtag".
It's used within a message to identify a keyword or topic of interest and make it easier to do a search for it. Clicking on a hashtagged word in any message shows you all other Tweets in that category. Hashtags can occur anywhere in the Tweet.

Its a hash tag it is like when something well known is going on like say a episode of jersey shore everyone puts #jerzday or something somewhere on your page their should be trending topics and if a lot of people are #jerzday then it would be a TRENDING TOPIC and you click on it or search the hash tag to see what people are saying about the specific topic
