Blog #7 #HashtagTendencies

Back around the end of 2014 I finally jumped on the bandwagon and made several different accounts across this smorgasbord of what is called social media. I have Instagram,        https://www.huffingtonpost.com/brian-honigman/the-100-most-popular-hash_b_2463195.html  Facebook, Snapchat, Pandora, Shazam, Offer-up, Let-go, Google, Google+, YouTube, and Blogger accounts   https://lui2143508.blogspot.com/ 
I can go on and list others, but I won't cause you get the idea. I use all these accounts daily, they are life hacks giving you the convenience to do the things you need and love to do in life. It's more convienant to DM, text, or use one of the many social media apps and their quick and easy to use messaging systems. Before 2014 I never had any account on any social media outlet; things and times change though. Early in the beginning of my social media use; I would see everyone and their momma's using the # symbol that would turn the words right after it into a searchable item of a story, article, video, picture, object. This #post is a connection source other users could join in on to add, and share things relating to the #post. The #post is then clicked on by other users that are continually checking in to see what's going on with the #post, and to add or share more to the #post. 
These randomly made up #posts, #topics, #scenarios, #ideas,  attract a lot of user attention that continually helps these masses interact, relate, communicate, on shared interests, love, stories about that topic post. Seeing all kinds of people inter-mingle in this way shows how our tendencies as humans with our most basic instinct, is wanting to interact mentally, emotionally with others. These interactions are our most basic instinct, having that on going interaction is what we all want, and exactly why #hashtags are so popular and widely used   
 
........people know this is a fast-sure way to find a lot of other people interested in the similar things they are. This is exactly why I love social media and the mechanics behind it, because it's a force that inspires, moves, motivates people towards the mainstream of interactions and relating stories. This is exactly why everybody and anyone on these social media platforms have #hashtag tendencies, Society truly does have #hashtag tendencies!
