Has everyone been reading the #bwe08 Tweets?

I really didn't follow much of the conference over Twitter during the weekend, I was too busy cleaning up around these parts. However, I did see a few tweets from David regarding the show.

By the way, could someone please explain why people sometimes use # on Twitter. WTF is #

[deb_n]

It's a hashtag. So when there's an event or discussion you can access the hashtags to find out who else is talking about said event or discussion - even if you don't follow. Give it a Google.

# is a hash tag hashtags.org

I see. So instead of following a ton of people that are attending the event, I subscribe to a hash tag or do I simply monitor the hash tag via the site Chris has posted?

Yes or use search.twitter.com on that phrase

If you are organising an event or have a group of friends there is also this service where you add everyone then can see all the most recent status messages on one page
