• Get people to post to Twitter using a distinctive word or a hashtag
• hashtag = a word or a phrase prefixed with the symbol #
• Set up a Twitter search for the hashtag or word
• Twitter stream on your blog or webpage. Make a virtual world poster

Use a service like Networked Blogs to get automatic posts on Twitter and Facebook.

• Hashtags are used to facilitate search for a particular topic.  
• A unique hashtag could make it easy for people to find web content about that topic.  
• Is a hashtag becomes well-known, it may not stay unique.
• Hashtags based on common words might not be unique
