According to Wikipedia, "a hashtags are words or phrases prefixed with the symbol #... and are mostly used as unmoderated ad-hoc discussion forums."

So if you use a hashtag on Twitter, you are trying to make your hashtag a trend, a phrase people can search. Short story long, a hashtag should not be used in a text message.
