Birthday wishes continued to pour in to Craig last night and this morning.

Although it did not appear to trend worldwide (through briefly in Canada as RSA member Banana_Happy spotted), the hashtag was tweeted more than 6700 times in 36 hours.  Trending gurus tell us it&#8217;s not always the number of times a tag is tweeted that makes it trend, but rather the number of <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">users<\/span> tweeting it in a <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">short<\/span> period of time.  Those 6700 #happybirthdaycraigy tweets came from fewer than 450 of Craig&#8217;s 198,735 followers, when often more than a thousand are needed.  If all 450 people who tweeted yesterday get a couple of friends to help next time and focus on a specific hour or two during the day, chances of a trend will be much improved.  It goes to show just how widespread and tenacious those Justin Bieber fans are.<br \/><br \/>It&#8217;s back to all new shows for the rest of the week.  Tonight, Craig welcomes <\/span><\/span><\/span>actor\/writer\/director Jon Favreau and musician  Jakob Dylan to the Late Late Show.  Producer Michael Naidus&#8217; tweet:  <span style=\"font-style: italic;\" class=\"status-body\"><span class=\"status-content\"><span class=\"entry-content\">106 characters on the show:  Jon Favreau and Craig  reminisce about working on a movie together.
