I find the # tag (ie #cricket) really useful for searching conversation threads. Not sure if there's any protocol around these phrases? Acronyms are a bit of a minefield, too, seemingly the most popular being RT - retweet, or forwarding another's message. And using a URL shorterner such as bit.ly or tinyurl is vv useful too.
