Google's tally of activity on "Google Plus-enhanced products," by contrast, suggests frequent activity on the network by at least 50 million people. But it includes activity on YouTube, the Android Marketplace and the Google search engine. Even if you don't have Google+, you probably spend a significant amount of time on these sites. In The Times article, Google defends its statistic by saying time spent on Google+ isn't reflective of how much the network is being used. Gundotra described the social network as "a social blanket that envelopes the entire Google experience."

Hidden in Facebook's 1 billion monthly active users announcement today is one statistic particularly worth underlining: the service is now seeing 600 million monthly active mobile users.

""Adidas received the largest week-over-week percent change (+354%), according to Bluefin. "This could be due to the number of ad airings they had this week - 123 airings of 3 creatives - vs last week, when they only had 23 ad airings," they further explained. "114 of the airings this week were of the new Adidas Basketball D Rose commercial," leveraging a celeb for social TV chatter. Here's further commentary from Bluefin and the commercial chart. The top 3 most tweeted-about brands were Subway (5.5K), the movie Paranormal Activity 4 (4.4K), and Adidas (4.3K). As we already know, celebrity figures help build social TV buzz, and sports is no exception. 63.4% of the comments about Adidas mentioned the D Rose commercial. Here's one example tweet. You may have noticed that Old Navy, the #1 brand on last week's chart, isn't on this list at all. As mentioned in last week's post, Old Navy had run two musically-themed creatives a total of 394 times. This week, Old Navy only ran one creative, but it aired a whopping 625 times. The big drop in conversation may be due to "ad-wear," when viewers get tired of seeing the same commercial over and over. Also, the Old Navy commercial that ran this week featured musician Justin Guarini. The bulk of last week's conversation was actually about the other commercial, featuring the Backstreet Boys. Subway was not tracked last week, so there is no week-over-week percent change."

Uniform, a British brand communications agency, has rigged up a crazy gumball machine that gets activated whenever anyone follows them on Twitter-sending a gumball careening down a long and winding chute, coming to rest in the agency's studio, where workers presumably fight over it (or maybe not). In the meantime, the agency @replies you with a link to a video of the machine in action (though not, sadly, featuring footage of your particular gumball).
