Hello Vintage VW friends.
What is VintageVW? It’s a global conversation that anyone can take part in. Are you restoring a Vintage Volkswagen Beetle or Bus? Just purchased your first VW and have no idea where to start? Have a daily driver? Curious about Vintage Volkswagens? All you have to do is post a tweet and tag it with the hashtag #VintageVW.
Hashtags:
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.
Hashtags: helping you find interesting Tweets:
- People use the hashtag symbol # before relevant keywords in their Tweet to categorize those Tweets to show more easily in Twitter Search.
- Clicking on a hashtagged word in any message shows you all other Tweets in that category.
- Hashtags can occur anywhere in the Tweet.
- Hashtagged words that become very popular are often Trending Topics.
Example: @erokCom added the hashtag before the word “#VintageVW” in his message. The word is now a link to search results for all Tweets containing “#VintageVW” in the message.
Using hashtags:
- If Tweet with a hashtag on a public account, anyone who does a search for that hashtag may find your Tweet.
- Don’t #spam #with #hashtags. Don’t over-tag a single Tweet. (Best practices recommend using no more than 3 hashtags per Tweet.)
- Use hashtags only on Tweets relevant to the topic.

Great explanation of the # #VintageVW
Thanks, Eric. I’ll have to try it. Can you use twitter to search for parts or tips?
Sure! Yes, you can.
