Hashtags are used in all the popular social networks, well, except LinkedIn. What's a hashtag? The simplest description is any word or phrase preceded by the symbol #.

Interest initiates search, and in the search results, you need to somehow attract attention.
Like all internet advertising endeavors, you need to do or say something interesting while your audience is listening. But when is your audience listening?
In late 2009, Hubspot.com published research data about Twitter. One of their interesting findings stated that the best way to attract you... VIEW FULL GOLD NUGGET
Yesterday we gave you a very brief introduction to Twitter. And that was truly very brief considering there are hundreds of printed books, eBooks and online courses that teach you amazing twitter secrets.
Our point of view is different. We know you don't have a lot of time and we want you to get the best ideas from these Daily Gold Nuggets.
Yesterday we told you to create a Twitter account and send a tweet that said "We have a great selection of #wedding #rings that just arrived."
The words "#wedding" and "#rings" are called hashtags within Twitter. This hashtag feature allows various tracking for you, and ease of search for general users. If someone wants to find all local tweets with the word "wedding" in it they could search for "wedding," or they could search for "#wedding."

I don't know how many industries have something of jWAG's caliber available, but I learn from the emails every day.
