Tonight: all KR talk on Twitter should go on #Knight

Post by Luis » Wed Jan 28, 2009 6:23 pm

Hi guys,

This is a simple request. During tonight's episode, please tweet about it. Better yet, use the hashtag #Knight.

(info on hash tags: http://twitter.pbwiki.com/Hashtags" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

The idea is to have a bunch of tweets w/ this tag rise up on the list of popular topics. This could greatly raise awareness of the show and maybe even help w/ the ratings.

Better yet, it creates a "chat channel" for all things Knight Rider. I love to chat here, but chatting on Twitter is visible to the entire world (in contrast, KRO is very low-profile and secluded). We need to show ourselves...

So go to http://www.twitter.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Create a profile. Before, during and after tonight's episode, tweet to your heart's content.

And ALWAYS use the #Knight hashtag.

Who's up for it?

I signed up and used the #Knight tag in a post right after I did. Although I'm kinda confused on how the website works.

It's pretty easy. Start choosing people to follow. You can use http://search.twitter.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; to find posts/people.

Try searching for "Knight Rider" :)

As you start "following" people, they follow you back. They become your followers. Everything you tweet about is seen by them.

Twitter Search is a great way to know what's popular. A similar tool is Twitscoop (http://www.twitscoop.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;).

Finally, using a client is much more effective than the web. I recommend TweetDeck (http://www.tweetdeck.com/beta/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

We should all add out Twitter ID's in this thread! I'm AtmanRising.

I was thinking that #Knight was more mysterious. If you think that #KnightRider is better, feel free to edit the thread :)
