You follow people on twitter, not hashtags. Hashtags let you tag a tweet e.g. #IranElection tags tweets on Iranian elections and anybosy can tweet about the said elections and use the hashtag. You can then choose to follow the particular person(s) who&#39;ve used the hashtag.<br>

<br><div>I just discovered the #WGSDIA hashtag today (so far just one blog post plus several retweets) and so I&#39;m going to be following it going forward.</div><div><br></div><div>What interesting Twitter hashtags do you follow?</div>
