Twitters Secret Societies of the Hash Tags

Twitter uses the Hash Tag # to aid in searching. Popular example #followfriday if you do a search using Search Twitter or Tweet Grid you will discover recommendations by your fellow Tweeps.

It was an accidental discovery clicking on a hash tag instead of the link next to it. A new page opened there was a conversation among Tweeple all including the same hash tagged term. I felt uncomfortable, a voyeur to a communication sequence not intended for me. Although these postings were all available in the open twitter forum when put together in a single page of posting they appeared to be private conversation.

While exploring Hash Tags and searches I discovered how extensive the use of the Hash Tags were for mobilization of Twitters.
