Facebook Adding Hashtags

On Wednesday, Facebook announced that they will begin using hashtags.

Facebook being the only major social media site that doesn't utilize them, finally bowed to reality.

Hashtags were originally created by Twitter as an easier way to search for a topic.

According to Facebook, about twenty percent of their users already use hashtags, despite their not doing anything.

However, the rollout began Wednesday, and over the next few weeks all of the site's users will be able to utilize them.

Some note that this is the first time anyone has looked forward to a Facebook update.
