huh. If it has been going on, it may have passed its peak, but I'll give it a shot...

How many tweets does it usually take to get a "trend" started?

[sailingaway]

well, I seem to have missed the moment...

I don't know. It usually takes a group going for a while, maybe fifteen minutes before it starts to trend but with a bunch of people. There just aren't enough people because it wasn't planned, a couple people just spontaneously got fed up with government as it is, I guess.

Yeah, but that wasn't what they were tweeting.... :p

Yeah, it seemed to die around the time I posted here. My understanding is that "trending" is only partially related to the quantity of tweets. Coordinating timing counts for a lot, because something 'trends' based on a sudden uptick of activity level.

That's one less character you can use for something else. :)

I wasn't aware of that. Filed for future use!

It looks like this was trending for a while, and I blinked and missed it!

Grammar is a bitch on twitter. Not enough room.

Tonight I watched Ron Paul's banned "Incredible Ron Paul Video" which I found on the Judicial Watch site.I watched it 3 times. Ron Paul ,that video was one of the
most POWERFUL ,amazing,POWERFUL,video's .I would encourage everyone on the forum to watch it.I would ask the moderator respectfully to make the
video available to the Liberty Forest Forums.
Ron Paul said "Idea's are very important to the shaping of society", I believe if THIS very video were to be reproduced with some updated revisions to this moment
in time,
it would send a even more POWERFUL message.I believe that video was meant for NOW.Our United States Government, our U.S.Constitution and Bill of rights,our Liberty and Freedom, under attack nearly everyday.We need this as a reminder.Thank-you Ron Paul!

Welcome to the forums!

I think you have to post three times before you can post a link, so you need two more. Counting works.

I have seen banned Ron Paul videos before, not sure if I've seen this one.
