The hashtag as a site of memory is representative, connective, and accessible like many memorials are designed to be. In terms of accessibility, the hashtag is available to anyone in the realm of social media. One can easily pay his or her respects through a post on the Internet rather than traveling countless miles to a site; however, the function of the site is nonetheless the same. Just as family members, friends, and even strangers leave flowers and other symbolic gifts at September 11th memorials to honor the deceased, online users use their words and photographs to do the same via an Internet platform. Furthermore, the site of memory of a hashtag may be even more accessible than physical memorials, because of its permanence. Once something is posted online, it remains there waiting to be found, unless the user decides to delete the message. As I searched for 9/11 hashtags on Twitter, for example, I found a search engine that allowed me to clarify what I was looking for in Twitter’s archives. I could narrow my results to search for any post on September 11th (2010-2014), which included the term #NeverForget911. On Instagram, I was able to type in any hashtag into the search engine and see what people around the world posted. Some may argue that the hashtag is truly not accessible; it is merely a fleeting message that can be lost in our "Newsfeed" if we, as many users do, quickly scroll through the applications on our phones. Yes, this is a possibility, but the idea is that the hashtag can always be accessed, not whether or not it is always seen. While a September 11th memorial such as a shrine or mural can be extremely powerful, none are as easy to access, view, and use as the hashtag is, which leaves an enduring imprint online, almost like a tattoo.
