Be Creative... Be Original ... Be a Trend Setter

What is a Hash Tag ?
The # symbol, called a HashTag, is used to mark keywords or topics in a Tweet. It was created organically by Twitter users as a way to categorize messages. Hashtagged words that become very popular are often Trending Topics. That is our Goal to make #HIV a Trending Topic.

What is HashTagHIV ?
