Hi everyone,

A question for all the Twitter researchers out there: does anyone know how to find the first use of a hashtag? 

I came across the tool Who Tweeted It First (http://ctrlq.org/first/), but it seems to cover only very recent Tweets, and I am interested in a hashtag that has been used for several years.

Thank you!

Rachel
