We're finally giving the hashtag its own key. The HashKey is the world's first one-key USB keyboard - dedicated solely to the hashtag.

the keyboard pictured is a british keyboard. most british keyboards already have a hash key, conveniently placed right next to enter, you don't even have to hold down shift to type a hash like you do on a us keyboard. but apple, being apple, use a non-standard layout with no hash key.

why does every single thing now have to have an #OfficialHashTag prominently displayed in its marketing material

is the idea that people somehow won't know how to tweet correctly about the thing without it or is it just a feeble move at encouraging people to tweet about it in the first place

i guess but that's not remotely how twitter trends work, nothing ever got popular because an ad had a hashtag

i mean has an actual human being ever tweeted #fourthmeal without being paid by taco bell

i'm just saying that i'd expect the marketing majors who study this poo poo for a living to have caught on by now, a fuckin restaurant is not robin thicke
