With Twitter becoming more and more popular, there’s now a drive to succinctly summarise a hot topic with the perfect hashtag. Some of the more obvious hashtags to trend on Twitter recently are #hackgate, referencing the News of the World hacking scandal, and #1yeartogo, for Olympics tweets. Other, slightly less obvious, big hitters have been #thingswelearnedontwitter to mark little snippets of Twitter wisdom like “typing coherently in 140 characters or less is an art form” and “people really like to take pictures of their food”. #getsonmynerves has also been popular. In the UK, #stayonyourfeet proved to be one of the more random Twitter hits of the year.
