To get information in your newsfeed about a topic that interests you, follow a tag for that topic. In this context, tags are keywords preceded by a hash (#). For example, if you wanted to get the latest information on your team's analytics, you might follow the tag #analytics in your newsfeed. When you start following a tag, you'll get newsfeed notifications whenever that tag appears in any conversation being made on that newsfeed. When you're no longer interested in news about the tag, you can easily stop following it.
Note: The capabilities described in this article depend on whether your organization has set up or customized personal sites and newsfeeds, and whether it supports this social feature.
What do you want to do?
Follow a tag from your newsfeed
Your newsfeed is a good place to look for information about subjects you're working on. When you see a tag that sparks your interest in a newsfeed post, you can follow it to see more posts about that topic in your newsfeed and to share your interest with others.
You'll get newsfeed notifications when people you follow start following a tag, and, if your newsfeed privacy settings allow, people who follow you will get notifications in their newsfeed when you start following a tag. This helps you and your team connect with the right people to exchange information.
