Entry #7 Hashtags

I'm a person that spends quite an amount of time online. So when "hashtags" began I would see them everywhere Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. People would use them to make a point about a post or a picture they would put up. For example when someone would post about a trip they would hashtag the place like #Fiji or something that they are eating like #pancakes. I really don't use hashtags but when I do its just for fun or I just forget. The hashtag that I always remember and see a lot is #tb or #tbt which means throwback and throwback Thursday. There are so many, some people sometimes over use them and hashtag their entire post which I think is very weird. 

NOTE: It’s called a hashtag because the “#” symbol is referred to as a “hash” symbol in some places. (It’s more commonly referred to as a “pound” symbol in the U.S.)
