Υποστήριξη #hashtags και στο Facebook!
Ένα από τα πιο γνωστά χαρακτηριστικά του Twitter, το hashtag, έκανε την εμφάνιση του και στο News Feed του Facebook. Κάνοντας κλικ σε ένα hashtag, εμφανίζεται μια λίστα με όλα τα posts των φίλων σου ή των σελίδων που έχεις κάνει 'like' και χρησιμοποιούν το ίδιο hashtag.
Επιπλέον μπορείς να αναζητήσεις αυτό που σε ενδιαφέρει απευθείας από τη search bar του Facebook (π.χ. #MarkZuckerberg) και να δημοσιεύσεις το post σου από τα αποτελέσματα αναζήτησης.
Όσο για την ιδιωτικότητα των hashtags σου, το κοινωνικό δίκτυο σου παρέχει τον απόλυτο έλεγχο πάνω στο ποιος μπορεί να τα βλέπει. Η νέα λειτουργία είναι αρχικά διαθέσιμη σε περιορισμένο αριθμό χρηστών και μέσα στους επόμενους μήνες θα ακολουθήσουν trending και sponsored hashtags.

Public Conversations on Facebook
June 12, 2013
By Greg Lindley
Every day, hundreds of millions of people use Facebook to share their thoughts on big moments happening all around them. Whether it's talking about a favorite television show, cheering on a hometown sports team or engaging with friends during a breaking news event-people on Facebook connect with their friends about what's taking place all over the world.
During primetime television alone, there are between 88 and 100 million Americans engaged on Facebook - roughly a Super Bowl-sized audience every single night. The recent "Red Wedding" episode of Game of Thrones, received over 1.5 million mentions on Facebook, representing a significant portion of the 5.2 million people who watched the show. And this year's Oscars buzz reached an all-time high on Facebook with over 66.5 million interactions, including likes, comments, and posts.
To date, there has not been a simple way to see the larger view of what's happening or what people are talking about.
To bring these conversations more to the forefront, we will be rolling out a series of features that surface some of the interesting discussions people are having about public events, people, and topics. As a first step, we are beginning to roll out hashtags on Facebook.
Introducing Hashtags on Facebook
Starting today, hashtags will be clickable on Facebook. Similar to other services like Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, or Pinterest, hashtags on Facebook allow you to add context to a post or indicate that it is part of a larger discussion. When you click on a hashtag in Facebook, you'll see a feed of what other people and Pages are saying about that event or topic.Now you can:
• Search for a specific hashtag from your search bar. For example, #NBAFinals.
• Click on hashtags that originate on other services, such as Instagram.
• Compose posts directly from the hashtag feed and search results.As always, you control the audience for your posts, including those with hashtags.
Hashtags are just the first step to help people more easily discover what others are saying about a specific topic and participate in public conversations. We'll continue to roll out more features in the coming weeks and months, including trending hashtags and deeper insights, that help people discover more of the world's conversations.
