Superbowl Blowout

February 4, 2012

To everyone who was watching the Superbowl last night, it was a HUGE success in the world of Twitter! It was reported that over 24.1 million tweets about the game and halftime show were posted by you all! Can't you see how capable the world is of bonding over one thing? Social media has become a tool for everyone to use to click somewhere with another person. It has helped spread the word about something, get people's attention towards an event, or simply to make someone laugh. The halftime show which included multiple songs by the gorgeous Beyonce generated 268,000 tweets per minute. That is a crazy influx of tweets per minute, and its all about one thing (or person I should say)...Beyonce. Also, another interesting note was that commercials were able to change their advertisements during commercials to make them relevant to the blackout during the Superbowl. Some companies like Oreo and Tide produced ads in minutes and posted them on Twitter about the blackout that happened. It was quite funny and got the attention of millions of followers. The power of social media and Twitter specifically has become revolutionary and we, the people of the US, can use this to our benefit! Learn more about something, get updated and current news, or simply voice your opinion on something...because everyone has one!! What did YOU mainly tweet about during the Superbowl?
