Gale W accidentally discovered a cool feature we have on this board--the hash tag. Just like Twitter, if you put a hash tag in front of a word or stung-together phrase, you can pull up all incidents where that hash tag appears. I was thinking we should have some standard hashtags of words and phrases that are popular with the Peas. For example:
<br [hash]thrusday
<br [hash]hairflip
<br [hash]beatadeadhorse
<br [hash]passthepopcorn
<br [hash]wowjustwow
What am I missing?

I wish I knew where the <br came from. If you do a list, be sure to double space between hashtags or you'll get a bigger mess than I did. (I double spaced when I edited.)

I see this becoming a new unwritten Pea rule. Copy & paste the OP on controversial subjects and as soon as there is a whiff of drama, whip a cute hashtag.  [HASH]TurkeyGate [HASH]TearBears [HASH]AltoonaPolice |

[HASH]would you eat this? You do have to run it all together to get the hashtag to work. <br [hash]wouldyoueatthis And, you apparently can't put in punctuation. |

I use Safari on my iPhone to browse here and I just see the word HASH inside of brackets for every hashtag post.

I use Safari on my iPhone to browse here and I just see the word HASH inside of brackets for every hashtag post. This was me when reading last night. This morning I am on my macbook and see the #. I wonder why that is? |

Can someone explain hashtags to me? (I don't do Twitter.)
I tried it out here a few weeks ago, after reading a post about using it with names. Instead of quoting, I put [HASH] in front of a name when asking a question. Her name turned blue. Cool. When she responded, my name was blue. But I got no notification of it, so assume she didn't, either.
So, what's the point/advantage?
How is saying, "Hey, [HASH]AmeliaBloomer, what's with the underwear?"
different than
"Hey, AmeliaBloomer, what's with the underwear?"?

I'm on my phone and don't see clickable hash tags. Just the word HASH in brackets.

Yeah, it does make sense; that was already my vague sense of the hash tag world. But then I read a post about using hash tags here for names, so I thought there might be some alerting system. Since we already have the ability to search for members' posts, there doesn't seem to be a need for blue-ing forum members. Right? My kids speak in hash tags. Drives me bonkers. I'd like to turn THEM blue. |

Yeah, I'm not sure there's much point in hash-tagging names. But hashtags are used without much point quite a bit - I'm guilty of using silly hastags myself once in a while!  |

I think you just tag names-not hashtag them. Although I've never gotten a special notification when someone tagged me in a post. You tag someone by putting @ in front of their name. AmeliaBloomer or jennifercwDid either of you get a notification? |

Did either of you get a notification? Right back at you @jaynecobb...I mean gale w Yes, I did get a notification. So it's tagging, not hash tagging, I had read about, and it does have some utility - especially when you don't feel like quoting. Thank you! AmeliaBloomer Newly Tech Savvy |
