THERE&#8217;S<br \/>someplace I never thought I would ever be.  If you don&#8217;t know what a hashtag<br \/>is, consider yourself tragically un-hip, but if you are guessing, no, it<br \/>isn&#8217;t a price sticker for a Hormel product.<\/p>\n<p>A hashtag is a way of calling attention to your tweets to those who<br \/>&#8220;subscribe&#8221; to the tag.  I can explain no further.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, I&#8217;ll try.  First, a hashtag looks like this:  #.ff or #jobs, for<br \/>example.  The hash mark is the number sign, which is shift-3 on the number<br \/>row.<\/p>\n<p>This would be a bit tricky if you are on a screen reader, as my screen<br \/>reader will attempt a pronunciation whether or not it reads an actual word.<br \/>You could  slam your fists down on the keyboard and Zoomtext will attempt to<br \/>read it aloud.  this makes for some really funny moments, especially once<br \/>you begin to realize that playing around with certain characters can alter<br \/>the way a word or sentence is read.   Add a tilda (~) to a sentence, and<br \/>hilarity ensues.<\/p>\n<p>There are some good Twitter tutorials out there, go to your favorite search<br \/>engine and type in:  Twitter in plain English.  You&#8217;ll get some articles and<br \/>primers on the subject.  Some Twitter conventions were not implemented by<br \/>the Twitterati themselves, rather, the Twitter-obsessed community, now<br \/>referred to collectively as &#8216;Tweeple.&#8221;  It&#8217;s all rather ingenious, once you<br \/>find the Twitterosetta stone.  For you text-to-speech users, that was<br \/>&#8220;Twitter Rosetta Stone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The endless Twitter puns are pretty fun, too.<\/p>\n<p>LL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I actually found myself at a web site called <a href=\"http:\/\/hashtags.org\" class=\"autohyperlink\">hashtags.org<\/a>.
