A Twitter hashtag
groups people
together who want to
talk about the same
topic or who are at
the same place.

9. • Go to your home page on twitter
• Search #egypt
• #qldfloods

• #edchat
• Something that interests you
• Come back and tell us a few words about a useful # you found
# anyone can make their own hashtag, just search
for it first to make sure it isn’t already in use.
# are powerful because your tweets are seen by
people who don’t follow you.
# are useful to use as a backchannel when
attending a conference.
