July 16 2013
I must admit, I'm a big fan of Twitter. While every social network has their niche, Twitter is the best for finding news and information that is relevant to your life. A large part of this is because an individual is able to partake in conversations outside of their personal network, which is facilitated by the use of hashtags.
Last month, Facebook announced that they were adding interactive hashtags to their platform, allowing users to discover new content within Facebook, which is very similar to Twitter.
With hashtags, you can:
- Search for a specific hashtag using your search bar
- Click on hashtags to discover what is being said about a topic
- Compose posts directly from the search results
While some are celebrating and others less enthusiastic, it will be interesting to see how much adoption it will receive moving forward. The major obstacle of hashtags on Facebook being adopted by the personal user, is privacy settings. The majority of user's conversations are happening within their personal network, and will likely continue to be this way unless they are open to removing a large portion of their privacy settings.
