Facebook Inc, the world's No 1 social network, has announced that it
will adopt hashtags, one of the most recognisable features of its
younger rival Twitter, in a move to position its web service as an
important complement to television, sporting events and breaking news.
Facebook said on Wednesday that it will begin to roll out the feature on its social network, making it easier for users and advertisers to find hot spots of user activity around specific events or topics.
The hashtag, which appears as the # symbol and was first popularised on Twitter, enables users to follow specific topics of conversation within a social network's ever-changing stream of user comments.
