If # is the character to start a hashtag, what is the character to start a geohash?

For instance, if we use ∆, then every time somebody writes ∆, it turns into the City name with a link that opens all notes that tagged that city.

Same character can bring up a list of locations just like @ brings up a list of user names.

Ideas?

# and @ are the only easily accessible keyboard characters that have a “block” design and so are easily recognized without getting in the way of the next word.

I would use a double #:

##venice

Or maybe !#:

!#venice

(slower to activate, but ! remind the map pin)

Hah. Amethyst formatted this in Markdown because it starts with hash and space "# " 😅

Good point about the block design. I think !# the best suggestion thus far.
