While I watched the game I twittered my responses to the ads as they played down. That was the goal. Jeremiah Owyang kicked off this little activity. It became a fun little speed activity in between the bursts of 3-4 commercials during the breaks.
You can read the fascinating analysis here - no, I am not kidding, I found the level of activity surprising. If you download the spreadhseet you will find that jeremiah tabulated almost 2000 responses. WHICH DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR AT LEAST 8 OF MINE. Seems that my Twitterberry application was not reliably 'pasting' in the @superbowlads prefix which would have made all of my "votes" show up. Rohit covered it here. Still I had fun. There was a sense of community as we all participated. It actually went pretty far to extending the sense of a live shared experience. That's one thing Twitter can be really good for - sharing povs on a common experience like a TV show, a conference or ....political candidates performance.
Forget the pundits who wrap up the debates. Let's get Twitter-bates going simultaneous to the next round of debates. If some miracle happens and the Democratic nomination isn't tied up by midnight tonight, then lets have Twitter-reviews during the key speeches of the convention.
