Kellogg’s Tweet shop
Post by BEcause XM
In order to get people to talk about its new Special K Cracker crisps Kellogg’s opened a shop in London where people could pay for a packet with a tweet. We have seen an increasing number of activations like this, which encourage people to start a conversation in order to receive a sample. Earlier in the year Toyota and iced tea brand BEV also came up with ways to get people to tweet for a treat.
Mercedes Benz tweets parking spaces
Post by BEcause XM
Mercedes Benz took its “Park Assist” feature to the streets with this interesting campaign. Working under the premise that it can be difficult and frustrating to find a parking spot; the automotive company created a roving “Tweet Fleet”. Mercedes fitted some of its cars with a special device that allowed them to send geolocation data to twitter. Every time the Tweet Fleet passed an empty parking space an automatic tweet was posted to a dedicated twitter account. Allowing motorists who followed on Twitter to home in on free spaces. It was a great way to sync the in-car “Park Assist” feature with the idea that things can be a little easier. The campaign got the press talking and we’re sure it was also much appreciated by those after elusive parking spaces!

Will you use Twitter’s new follow button?
Post by BEcause XM
Twitter has launched a new follow button which allows users to subscribe instantly to website page updates without having to click through to their Twitter account.
Many companies will add the new buttons for separate pages and blogs so that twitter users can follow them individually. The Telegraph, CNN, Sports Illustrated and MTV have all added ‘Follow’ buttons to their pages and expect many more to follow in their footsteps soon. This is one of many new developments that the social conversation site has launched recently, how do you think this will affect your daily tweeting?

A personal experience that goes global
Post by BEcause XM
Talk about being in the right place at the right time! A woman onboard a passenger flight from New York to Palm Beach managed to capture Space Shuttle Endeavor’s last launch on her iPhone and then went on to tweet about her experience. The pictures and a short video soon spread through the social media world like wildfire and appeared on CNN news, increasing her followers on twitter by 1000 in just a few hours.
Space shuttle launch images are a dime a dozen; however Stefanie Gordan’s experience is totally unique.
