Yaybia Weekly Link Love: January 26-30, 2009

ON THE WEBS:
  • I guess there's a football game Sunday?  If you're Tweeting about the ads, use #sbads09 and see your Tweets on AgencySpy.  Until then, you can't throw a rock at the Internet without hitting some preview, analysis, breakdown, or tweeting about the ads.  
  • The brands that most need to take advantage of social networks in 2009 were the brands with the most organic presence there in 2008.  AdAge lists the top 25.
  • We hated HBO's Big Love campaign that ripped off PostSecret.  Some things are sacred, and Church of Lam (Sunday Secrets with a bagel and coffee) is one of them.
  • We liked the party packs Velveeta sent to women hosting Super Bowl parties.  Reaching out to a consumer one-to-one is a great way to create brand ambassadors.
  • We're up in the air about TurboTax's Super Status contest.  It's definitely viral, but the process to play is complicated and it might come across as gimmicky.  
  • The blog world mourned the end of Domino magazine.


ON YAYBIA:


LOVERS & FRIENDS:
  • Big thanks to John Eighmey for responding to our thoughts about online video series.  We agree with your Tweet:  it always comes down to creativity.
  • Puppies and advertising together? Yes, please! Thanks Advergirl.
