We’re taking over Twitter…join the fun!!
Okay. I’m officially freaking out with excitement.
First off: another Harry Potter movie coming out for the first time in two years (I feel like it’s Christmas Eve!) and second, in honor of the character whose spirit will guide Harry through this film, we are making #dumbledore one of the most popular trends on Twitter (and retweet this page!)
Momentum is moving now. #dumbledore is surging everywhere. I keep looking at this site and every time I turn away for two minutes it tells me to refresh because there are 2 to 300 new #dumbledore’s. Now tonight is the moment to show the media, to show the world about our love for the message of Dumbledore. And after talking with countless reporters, they are watching us. Let’s make this happen. At Leaky Melissa explains how you can join in most effectively:
It’s all very simple. First, in all your tweets today tack this phrase onto the end of it: “#dumbledore http://tr.im/wwdd” (minus the quotes). The “#dumbledore” tag will start ratcheting the phrase up the ranks and the link will help spread the word. Then, when you see the film, make sure you say something like this (with the phrase Harry Potter in it as well):
Just about to see Harry Potter - in honor of #dumbledore we are taking over Twitter! http://tr.im/wwdd
Just saw Harry Potter - in honor of #dumbledore we are taking over Twitter! http://tr.im/wwdd
Harry Potter was awesome! In honor of #dumbledore we are taking over Twitter! #dumbledore http://tr.im/wwdd
VERY IMPORTANT: We will all be tweeting simultaneously AT 8:59pm PST - or 11:59pm EST! No matter what you are doing make a tweet at that moment!
You get the idea - anything with the phrase Harry Potter and the Dumbledore tag, and, if you can, the link. But the Dumbledore tag is the most important part! #dumbledore
So. Are you ready? Are you ready to take over Twitter? Tweet early. Tweet often. Tweet now. The game is on!!!

P.S. Remember to wear your name tags at the movie theater and to take pictures and post them on our Common Room. CNN has asked me for you to do that as they may want to use them! Be safe everyone and have FUN!
