Facebook has added the hashtag. Sure, Twitter started it, but the feature is used by Google+, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest, Vine.
Before Facebook was like a chaotic store of information that you can’t segment or parse. Hashtags will not help to fix this, but they are going to help significantly. From now on, with a click you will be able to find who else is talking about the respective topic on Facebook.
If you are using a hashtag, you generally want to be found, you want to be part of a larger conversation – especially if it’s happening in real-time.
