Hashtags?


I hate trendy social media crazes, mainly because I don’t get them. For example, what is a hashtag? I understand that twitter users began the fad by placing  “#” in front of key words in their tweets but I don’t understand how and why it became so popular.

It’s possible that many of you will laugh at me for not being up to date on the social media lingo.  I guess I am actually asking for someone to explain to me why you would write:

#family#lovethem#best#birthday#park#sunshine

Instead of

“Best birthday in the park with my family! Sunshine!”
