In short, the colours can't be used on Twitter. When I was sitting and brainstorming this, I was thinking about them being used both in Twitter as well as on Flickr, Youtube, blogs and so on. I was thinking ahead to something (That I've been working on) that would pull tweets tagged and colour-code them to make them easier to see. Not required, was just me thinking out loud. :) Hey Harvey, I’m a little late on the comment, but I hope it’ll be helpful anyway.

That said, I am also bit confused about how to incorporate the colour codes. Are you suggesting that these can be used on Twitter? If so, how does one go about incorporating the code it into a tweet. Could you post an example for us? I've looked and can't seem to find any instructions on this. @tommyvallier Again, I think that a standard local hashtag system is smart, and I’ve already begun to use it on Twitter.
