j/k =P
It wouldn't be a bad feature. I'm guessing you would want to make a little drop down list as opposed to the # feature(except emails and tweets of course) since most people would probably forget to do it when they are on web. Have it default to none, and give the option.

Well you know what they say about women with big feet. Wait, no... That's men.
#empathyday
Yes, but I have big feet, so it is harder for me to walk in someone else shoes.... wait, were you speaking metaphorically? I didn't understand you ;-)
So, are you against Mother's Day, Father's Day and all the other days that are designed to take a moment to recognize someone else?
Of course not. No more than I could be against birthdays, veteran's day, Martin Luther King day, etc. Giving someone a special day to recognize their contributions and remind them that they're appreciated is a little different, despite the fact that ideally we should show these people appreciation as much as possible. For people to need a designated day to be more generally compassionate isn't a BAD thing, but for some people who may think they're being a pretty good person by being empathetic once a year, they're completely missing the point. It's like when people do things for the good karma -- that's missing the point of doing good in the first place.
Anyway, that's also a reason I think "empathy day" isn't exactly a national craze like Mother's day is!
