Hashtags are a way of tracking trends on Twitter. Adding a word with a hashtag in front of it - for instance, #WikiAnswers - adds that "tweet" to a list of "tweets" with the same hashtags. That way they can be tracked and used for statistics about a trendy topic.

How do you change your user name on Twitter?
# Logon to your Twitter account # Choose settings # You will find two boxes at this point * Name: The name of your profile on Twitter * Username: The name of your profile page when someone comes to visit
NOTE: When changing either of the two fields it is important to note that you may lose track with certain people as a result of changing these fields. For example, my name is @BodyByChocolate, if I suddenly changed my name to @Fred how many people would be affected given that they are used to tweets from me as @BodyByChocolate? Therefore, only change these fields if absolutely necessary.
