  • Yes, they are hash tags. They work well to monitor what's being talked about on Twitter, but to my knowledge they are useless on Facebook. On Twitter you can click the tag, and it will show you all the other posts that have tagged that topic. I think they show up on Facebook because of the ability to update Facebook and Twitter simultaneously. I update my accounts separately, but sometimes I use a hash tag on Facebook to be a jack@ss. I'm a tech dork like that.
