Hide The Hashtag From Mom

By Brian Kelly


Hashtags on Twitter can be used for over just funny commentary. Now there is a hashtag that will put copter parents ' minds at ease.

Non-Twitter users could be baffled about the hashtag phenomenon, it is a technique to tag an idea or idea, which followers can click to find tweets about the same subject. For instance, "Just read Police Beat, I'm reasonably certain I'm the lead story. #awkward." Supporters can click on the hashtag and find stories about difficult moments. However , the new "#mom" serves a functional purpose.

Twitter reported there were 200 million tweets and 600,000 sign-ups every day in 2011. Somewhere in that mix are scholars just like us, who find ourselves recollecting to update a Facebook status or tweet before we even do not forget to do homework.

But some parents are annoyed by their children, who can remember to test in on FourSquare but forget to test in with Ma and Pa. Some folks, or moms specifically, worry when their youngsters forget to call as soon as they get home or into city. That will all change with #mom.

The service, available at www.hashtagmom.com, is hooked up to your FourSquare account, which links to Twitter.

When you check in on FourSquare with a message like, "Just landed at Phoenix Sky Harbour Airport," just add #mom. The service then forwards the update to your mom's mobile phone via text message, or calls her with a recorded message to inform her that you have landed safely. Nothing may be better than social networking while sorting out your position as No. 1 girl or boy.

Scholars dunk themselves every day on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and other sites, and each day students forget to call their mom or father for the 5th time. Or elders would like to think they forget to call, instead of intentionally refusing in order to avoid that lengthy conversation. This is a convenient and faster way of communication for protective and troubling parents.

Of course there are those students who might fret about this forwarded message permitting Mom access to their Twitter accounts. Quite honestly, future bosses can already look up potential staff ' Twitter accounts, so whatever might ruin a child-parent relationship probably should not be posted anyhow. When we start censoring what we put out there on the Web, there will be no need to fret about this new hashtag.

Besides, time to be honest â€" how many folks really know the way to use Twitter? #Mom is a good way to keep parents informed when busy students forget to.
