Oxford Dictionary, The American Heritage Dictionary, and Wiktionary say it's a noun.
"Spammers often broadcast tweets with popular hashtags even if the tweet has nothing to do with them." "The hashtag #riotcleanup is being used by community members to coordinate some post-riot street-cleaning." "Hunt mistook an @ for a hashtag while tweeting derogatory thoughts about him." "You can also search for a hashtag by typing a topic (without the #) in the search box and clicking Search." "While hashtags aren't formally part of Twitter, some clients, such as Tweetdeck, will persist hashtags across replies to create a sort of message threading." "The planes are moving into position. The foreign ministers of minor Arab states are taking calls on their cell-phones from Western politicians. Twitter accounts explode around the Libyan hash-tag." But Wiktionary says that "hashtag" can also be used on the Internet as a transitive verb, meaning 'to label (a message) with a hashtag'. "Twitter: how to hashtag your way to fame" ( http://host.madison.com/daily-cardinal/p...f887a.html ) |
