Trending
Trending is when a large number of people use the same hashtag in their messages, making it popular and for emerging trends to be identified. Justine Sacco is a public relations executive who made a racist tweet just before she boarded a plane for a 12 hour flight to Africa. News of her tweet spread like wildfire, within hours the #HasJustineLandedYet hashtag was trending worldwide and by the time the plane landed, Justine was unemployed.
Embarrassing hashtags
Hashtag baby
Hashtag Jamerson is the name of a baby girl who's parents spend too much time on the internet. Either that or they hate their child so much that an abortion wasn't good enough. Until their child is old enough to go for a new high score, expect that her parents will continue profiting from the publicity as they continue neglecting their child, leaving her alone in a crib while they play Farmville.
