❓Did you know that…

…the hashtag symbol, originally known as the pound sign or hash symbol (#), has deep roots in information technology? It was first used in the assembly language of the PDP-11 in 1970 to denote immediate address mode and later introduced in the C programming language around 1973 to indicate special keywords. In 1988, the pound sign found new significance within IRC networks, labeling groups and topics. This IRC usage inspired Chris Messina to propose a similar tagging system on Twitter in 2007, marking the birth of the hashtag as a way to categorize and discover topics of interest on social media.
