So I did:

Note the clever use of hashtags, #wow and #wowui. Now I’m sure most of you who use Twitter and play WoW have used the former at least once. However, I wondered how often #wowui was used. Here’s what I found:

Two uses, ever (or at least in the past 9 days; but Twitter flushes based on numbers not on days, if I recall correctly). So then I tried #wowplugins and #wowaddons (with and without the pluralizing "s"). Nada. Zilch. Zero. Well, what about WoW macros (#wowmacros)? Same results.

Yes, I’m quite aware the #wow and #warcraft hashtags are already used, but try to find addon info there. For instance, try to find my tweet about PitBull using the #wow hashtag. (If you’re clever, you can search "#wow kestrelsaerie" and find it right away: I have seven #wow tweets in the past seven days.)

So here’s my very simple proposal: If we’re going to tweet about the WoW user interface, including links to UI screenshots, addon or plugin updates, or WoW macros, let’s include the #wowui hashtag. What say you? I’d be interested in your comments.

 So for Lauren, here’s the shot. Note OneBag3 on the right. (hope the picture comes through GReader!)
