Sign of the apocalype

Advertising Age and What the Trend, a social media analytics service, have started to measure the most tweeted brands each week.

So, the Winter Olympics would likely be the most tweeted brand this week, right? Wrong!! The most tweeted "brand" is...Justin Bieber.

The Olympics picks up the silver medal at #2 followed by the NBA at #3. The rest of the top ten tweeted brands are:

- Google Buzz

- BRITs (biggest music award show in the U.K.)

- We Are the World

- Windows Phone 7

- MNIK (Bollywood film My Name Is Khan)

- #becauseofnickiminaj (People are explaining/blaming things that are now acceptable to do because of @NICKIMINAJ--rap's new bad girl, Nicki Minaj, known for her hardcore lyrics about sex, money, drugs and female empowerment)

- iPad

But...Justin Bieber. Seriously!?
