The Audi SuperBowl commercial was pretty clever. Called “Release the Hounds” and featuring the easy-listening jazz connoisseur Kenny G, it features two prisoners breaking out from a super-luxurious prison and making a getaway in the new Audi A8 sedan. Their message was to break the ‘confines of old luxury’ with Audi’s more sleek and modern

take. More importantly, the spot features the promoted Twitter hashtag and Twitter users participating in the hashtag relay

automatically entered themselves into an Audi contest with the chance to win a series of swish prizes.

In terms of online reception, Audi’s strategy seems to have been a success. The hashtag generated lots of conversation on both Twitter

and audi’s facebook page, and Audi’s Twitter account saw a 47% increase in followers, today topping 28,000

This is a really great website that charts the brands that competed to advertise during the super bowl 2011 - dubbed ‘Brand Bowl’. Tweets, hash tags, site visits

during the game were all totalled up to see which was: 1) the overall winner

2) the most talked about 3) the most loved

Really nice way of charting brand competition and gives us insight into which brands fare better than others,

and what tone creates more talkability.

4. Solidarités International

Solidarités International built an extraordinary wall of water right in the heart of Paris to generate public awareness about the devastating

ramifications of unsafe drinking water. Unsafe drinking water is still the primary cause of death in the world today. Each year, it leads to deadly illnesses such as cholera, typhoid, malaria, diarrhea and trachoma in almost 8 million people, including nearly 1.8 million children. In honor of the World Water Day, the NGO Solidarités International, specialized in meeting people’s most vital needs (including safe drinking water),

orchestrated a revolutionary public event. To better capture the attention of passers-by, the agency created a whole new kind of

billboard, using water as the medium. A temporary wall of water was set up in the very heart of Paris and for one week it conveyed poignant

messages that made people realize the vast extent of damages caused by unsafe drinking water all around the globe.
