Hahaa! We also got him on trending topic on twitter too!!!! After each tweet we put #davidcookrocks And it worked!!!!!!!!!! I was soooo happy. I was following david cook before and his user was @Real_DavidCook and i know it was him cuz it had a verified account....and then when i went to his page it said "ERROR" i was soooooo upset. Glad he fianally got another twitter!!! I comment him ALL the time. I hope he reads this cuz it would mean so much if he would follow me @sksee on twitter. lol!!

Well, after all the hard twittering last month we did help David reach his 50,000 followers goal and just in time for his deadline. Yeah for us!!!

I just noticed though that he has over 61,000 followers so I'm now waiting for the tweet from David about reaching 70,000 or maybe 75,000. LOL

I never followed twitter before and can only follow it now from my computer or through the link on this article but I am enjoying it. I have to wonder....What will we NOT do for this amazing young man?

And NOW @thedavidcook is over 60,000 followers! Awesome!

Cant we do the DavidCookRocks trending again,and get David up to 60,000

yes, sir! Wish anything and we'll be there for you. That's the least we could do for the one that had given us so much.
Expect more great things, David! Smiling

All of the Word Nerds were outstanding last night! Thank you for keeping David trending like that. Even if we didn't hit #1 on the trending topics, spending most of the night at #2 and #3 was pretty darn good! Plus we hit his follower goal and we had him trending for over 12 hours! Hot Damn! I'd say that was all WELL worth it and it was a lot of fun too. I hope we get to do it again sometime. Well done, everyone!

Any time you want or need us to trend you again, David, just say the word. We'll do anything in our power for you!

Cheers, Leann

Mr. Cook your wonderful supporters rallied together as one big community and twittered and trended #DavidCookRocks and succeeded in helping you to meet the goal! There was never any doubt in my mind that we could not help in this because I mean, who would NOT want to follow? #DavidCoookRocks!

To cookrocks926 and Briansgirl:

Thank you so much for the helpful comments you posted. It will take me awhile but I'll master Twitter and be tweeting along with the best of them soon. I always enjoy Dave's banter on the videos that are posted on You Tube. This should be a lot of fun too. I might end up sending you a few more messages if I get stuck on how to do something.

Again, thanks for taking the time to reply.

Smiling ~CookVoter

I tought twitter was only for teenagers who have nothing else to do, but I just registered for David ("I Dit It For You"). David, you are very powerful !

Hey Everyone,

It's not as difficult as you think to get started on Twitter...once you open an account, there's an option at the top of the screen "Help" that has everything you need to start. : ) Some words to know though:

1. Followers - are able to see every post, retweet, reply, mention, etc. that you post except for Direct Messages to other users.

2. Tweets - are posts by you or any other user made public to their "followers" list.

3. Retweets - when you hit Retweet you are basically "forwarding" a good post from someone else to your list of followers...you have the option to add commentary to it before sending...you can tell a Retweet with the letter RT and the username before the post.

4. Mentions - anytime you include a user's twitter username in a post, for instance, @venusgirl926, that user will get your tweet and can retweet or reply to you.

5. Tweet Party/Q&A - when David or any other well-known user decides to take questions and reply with answers that are posted for their follower list.

Hope these basic terms help & encourage you to get in there and try it. : ) You can search for anyone on the planet to see if they have an account and once their site comes up on your screen, all you have to do is click on "Follow". Most celebrity sites will say "Verified" if it's truly that person...otherwise, you may be following a wannabe or impostah, right Terry!!! : )

FYI, David's brother, Andrew @ACookOfficial, Neal @nealfingtiemann, and Andy @andyskib are on there too and are fun to follow!!! No thanks necessary...Friday night plans were called on account of rain so I have some free time. LOL : )

Have fun,
Candy - Follow me at @venusgirl926

I got on Twitter months ago when someone here posted that Terry the Assistant Light Tech was twitting, or tweeting. I'm not sure Terry has much to say anymore, but I'm having lots of fun following Dave and the band!

i love it when david cook tweets, it makes me warm and happy inside!

i will sign up just for him

HEY D,
TODAYS 911 LETS ALL REMEMBER AND SAY A PRAYER.

I am also trying to learn how to "Twitter" with the best of them !! (lol !!!) It is going to be fun, though. Whenever I have a question about something, I always go to "Google" and type in my question. It never fails! Google will have lots of info up for you to look at!! I think it is SO cool that David is a "twitter bug" !!! Good luck, my friend.

I signed up last night because I want to continue to support Dave in all his endeavors. I have to say though that I am confused as how to use the site. Does anyone know of a link that explains Twitter in easy to read instructions! You know like Twitter for Dummies!?!?

I was very uncomfortable about entering my password to my email..in fact it bothered me all day. What can anyone tell me about that?! I'm sure it's just me being suspicious because I'm new to Twitter so if you know of a site that will give me lots of information, post a comment please!

I met alot of nice people to talk to on it and plus the biggest reason is because David is on it:-)

-from jaime- David Cook and Daughtry fan and proud!

Hey D,

Guess you're as hooked as we all are to Twitter! It's a blast hearing from you on the road and your honesty with our crazy and sometimes scary questions during your Q&A Tweet sessions.

To all the fans who haven't joined Twitter, it's worth it just to follow David...he's given away tickets to shows, answered fans personally and his sense of humor is apparent in every tweet he sends...particularly the video from an episode of Wife Swap...with the little boy who rebels against the mom who takes his bacon away! I saw that episode way back but seeing his Video Tweet made me LMAO!!! : )

Join now and bring David to 100,000 followers...the heck with 50,000! He's known for blowing away a goal...and this should be no exception...see ya all on Twitter (@venusgirl926) and feel free to follow me if you like! The more the merrier...

First time I've used Twitter. Anything to help the Cook get to 50,000 followers. I just want to know when you are coming to Scotland so I can see you perform live. I suppose I'll just have to make do with listening to the album. For now xxx
