Like right now, a lot of people are using #iranelection, what does the #, followed by combined words mean?

Hello

It basically means it will be sent to everyone looking at that topic, rather than just your friends

"The hash mark (#) before a word in a post allows you to tag that post for that word. However, in order to get tracked via a hash tag, you need to opt-in and follow http://www.Hashtags.org."

Cheers,
