If you look at the source html you can see that instead of links they put in the "#" sign. Kind of like a "placeholder" for an actual link. It doesn't really mean anything...

# signifies an anchor on a page.

By itself ( domain.com/foo.html# ) it doesn't do anything, but if you put the name of an anchor after it, it will take you that location on the apge.

For example, if you have a link such as:

<a name="hello">hello</a>

and later you want to 'jump' to this section of your page, you can create a link such as <a href="#hello">Jump to hello</a>.
