Hashtags: Find what you're looking for
Hashtags are a way to find Tweets about a subject (or help other people find your Tweet). The hashtag symbol + any word will add a tag to the Tweet, so everyone talking about #kittens, for example, can all join in the conversation together.

Mention
Reply and mentions
Connecting with people on Twitter is as easy as an @ symbol. To reply to someone's Tweet, just click the reply icon. If you want to note someone else in your own Tweet, just add an @ and their username, and they'll get notified about what you wrote.
