I'm sorta new to Twitter, so I'm trying to get used to everything.

Like my friend tweeted something and it said "... is so hot #justsaying"
What does the #(words) part mean?
I don't know if I explained that well enough. Sorry.

A word with a # (Hashtag) in front of it, means that it is "trending" topic, and is how Twitter tracks what is being talked about.
