#Austin Tweeters Make Headlines!

Austin Wuennenberg




I am so proud of our Disney Community! The Orlando Sentinel caught on to our Twitter efforts and wrote an article about it!

"A group of Disney fans created the Twitter hashtag #Austin and told others to include it in their tweets. Their goal was to get the term into Twitter's trending topics, which is a realtime reflection of the most popular words and phrases people are putting in their Twitter messages."

Frank DisneyFrankness @DisneyDean maybe we could try to make #Austin a top Twitter trend as a tribute? from Tweetie in reply to DisneyDean

After nearly two days of trying, #Austin made it into the Twitter trending topics about an hour ago. It's currently the fifth most popular trending topic, after #musicmonday, Michael Jackson, Houston and MJ's.

Since the top trending topics are displayed on the right side of Twitter.com (pictured at right) when you log into your profile, supporters hope having #Austin near the top will raise awareness of Wuennenberg and the accident. You can also see the top trending topics at search.twitter.com.

Here's @DisneyFrankness reaction to seeing #Austin in trending topics:

Frank DisneyFrankness I am sure #Austin is smiling upon us all! from Tweetie
