If we're going to do it could we do it with a #minutes at the end of the subject instead so that it doesn't disrupt the actual subject? Since people read more by pattern matching the shapes of text than by parsing out the individual letters (particularly when reading at speed) it's not great to have them in the middle of text, this works a lot better in systems that support hashtags since they tend to provide visual cues that this isn't a normal word and even there outside of Twitter with its severe length restrictions they normally get pushed to a separate bit after the real text (Instagram used to encourage people to put them in comments, not even in the actual post). --v9g2r9e2kvGs7M7R Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCgAdFiEEreZoqmdXGLWf4p/qJNaLcl1Uh9AFAlwShqYACgkQJNaLcl1U h9D9cgf/d5UdV1z55hJybHYAjuqlToweX7sVgXCm53vbf1HZYz+SQIFXm1Ek3b3C 79xi/Snrx1DKDNSb4mFij5Uo3Wj/EUQew2IKQ9AVJiQ7u5aSvTjDzQK9avRdz4fl uZsjegU+UynUOU77y83GzAzsdxf4gqouLuUqiR5kyt3/Y57/JHXgzxStx4+AwGiF hVsj4jQC85P7HXBKfAH+p5b3tqrst+pGN15zm4NgrIo/e+CE1dXD9OZOdjOYiRbg ub+OIpRP+oFU9jN1USvayYbRcCavUMA0biGmRt/CDewRNCuDOpPQjqxn+f+NzN0T gmubkKpiR3WaWTu65QECsU6NGPHcUQ== =hJCL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --v9g2r9e2kvGs7M7R--
