Saturday: Google+ photo themes for the day!

The hashtags used on Google+ work in two ways:
You can click on them and they will take you straight to the search, showing posts with the hashtag in question. People who search for a certain topic can do so with or without the # and a keyword: You get slightly different results with either method, I've noticed.

Using hashes is a good way to get your posts noticed by the public, not just in photo themes but on any topic.
Of course that means posting in Public, otherwise only those with whom the post was shared can see the results.
So you can use your own unique hashtag, share posts only to yourself or an empty circle and easily find the posts later with the Google+ search.  Good tool, the search: It now works also with business pages.

The Google+ searches can be saved and will appear under the "Explore" tab on the left.

You may use capital letters, it doesn't make any difference in the search.
