Sounds like a cool idea…I'm in too. smile I won't be able to get on much at all that day because of school, but I'll do the best I can.

This sounds great, I have a question do we just do #happybirthdaystana or @stana_katic #happybirthdaystana

You can add that also, but its important that the tweet has something written in it other then just those 2 things ,it could get too long for someone to RT after.You can tweet more then once using different hashtags if you want to include also @stana_katic.

just thought i would pass along some info for you guys if you want to send stana a happy birthday message. Stanatalkradio is doing an entire broadcast on tuesday night april 26th for stana's bday.

the web address for the show is http://www.blogtalkradio.com/s…..atalkradio

(hope you can read that address if you cant pm me and i can get it to you)

the ladies sheryll and pam do the show on tuesday nights and you can also download on itunes as a podcast.

they were saying this last tuesday that sheryll was going to have a time slot on saturday morning from i want to say 4am-6am Central daylight time for people to call in and leave a message for stana. they were going to do this for anyone outside the US  who listen to the show but dont want to wake up at o dark 30 to try and call in.

i will help with the trending and i will let other people know too on twitter!!

Yes you write what you want and then add that, it should be 21 for you..not sure if Argentina has the same hour for all the county, if it does then its 21 ^_^

You could do "@Stana_Katic I wanted to wish you a #HappyBirthdayStana"  >> I think that's her Twitter name, anyway.

People are confused with the TT for stana's birthday… They don't understand that we can NOT trend if we don't tweet ALL at the same time…

 

Just read this tweet:

 Emmanuelle Works
 how are we supposed to do that? And when? some people are already on Mon. others will be after us.

all of that seems like too much work, I'm just going to invite her over for a pool party.

Yea, that will work.

So I was on Tumblr when someone had the idea of trending#HappyBirthdayStana on the 26th of April as to show our support and appreciation for her. I think it's a very nice idea and will also help Castle with some promotion considering she is known for her part as Beckett the most. So I taught to give some tips for who wants to take partecipate in this, since I've took part of oraganzing stuff like this for Legend of the Seeker and Smallville and it worked pretty well smile.

So here it goes:

If you're new to Twitter, first things first, you need to set up a Twitter account

Please click here to do so: http://twitter.com

-If you have a 'Private' Twitter account, you'll need to change it to 'Public' if you want your Tweets to count towards Trending. (You can always change your account back to Private after the trending event)

-For fans new to Twitter Trending, one of the easiest ways is help Trend is to search the #hashtag that we're trying to trend (The search window is on the right-hand side of your Twitter 'Home' page)For instance, if we're trying to trend the hashtag of:#HappyBirthdayStana you'll Search for that, and when the Search Results show up, just click on that hashtag, and the tweets related to it should show up. Then, just Retweet the ones you like (only Retweet the ones with either no 'RT' beside them, or only one 'RT' next to them. If there are more 'RTs' than that beside the Tweet, the #Hashtag might get cut off.)

-A hashtag is this: # and you place it in front of the word/name that you are trying to trend

-Only One # Hashtag is allowed per tweet (more than one and your tweet won't count towards trending)

-Do not spam, your tweet should not look like this: ”#HappyBirthdayStana #HappyBirthdayStana #HappyBirthdayStana“it doesnt count.

-It isn't the number of tweets, but the number of people tweeting that counts. The more people we have doing this, the more successful it will be!You might want to force/ask/ even begging your friend, followers, etc to type #HappyBirthdayStana ONCE per tweet! (Don't forget to say Thanks when they did )

 -Do not place 'lone' hastags.It won't be counted either.Add some sentences/words inside your tweet.

 -A simple text message from your cell phone to the twitter access code will post a tweeteroo and count toward trending!! (As long as you HAVE a twitter account linked up to that cell phone – really easy to do in the Twitter settings page.)

 -If you're unavailable to help trend during the times mentioned, you can also schedule your tweets ahead of time on Twaitter or FutureTweets
here:

http://twaitter.com
http://www.futuretweets.com
http://www.laterbro.com
http://www.hootsuite.com

 -Also you can use these websites to see if it's going to work or not smilehttp://trendistic.com/happybirthdaystana and here you can see from where all tweets are coming from http://trendsmap.com/ smile.

Now the hard part and most important is picking the time when we all start doing it, since for it to work all have to start at the same exact time.And it's important to also think of people who live outside of U.S since I know there are many fans in the rest of the world that would want to participate.

We usually used these time periods: 10am PST, 1pm EST, 6pm GMT, 7pm GMT+1 (if someone thinks there are better time slots tell me and I'll edit this) this might help some, convert your time zone here:http://www.timezoneconverter.c…..in/tzc.tzc)

So what do you think ? Hope I made some sense since english isn't my first language lol.If you think this is a good idea tell me and I'll redirect people from Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr here to check this post.

Getting ready to tweet one hour from… now.

I wish I knew how to quit you.

Ok so what I'm seeing we have the  numbers to trend but since its not at the same time it wont happen :(, so all go to twitter , facebook and tumblr and tell everyone to try trending in 40 min.

 

P.S in case you were wondering it takes around 300/400 pepole to make a trend enter the top 10 ones, it will only stay there for like 30 min.I think we can do it :P
