  8. London 2012: The First “Social” Olympics

    Over the next few weeks I will be keeping a close eye on all the activity surrounding the London 2012 Olympic Games. With this being considered the first “social” Olympics, I am particularly interested in following which athletes, brands, influencers, and fans effectively leverage this pivotal event in a unique and creative way.

     Will Twitter be able to sustain a surmountable amount of traffic? Will we see brands disregard IOC policies and engage in creative ambush marketing tactics online and via social media? Will NBC’s recent partnership with Facebookboom or bust? While millions across the world will be fixated on the peak performances, memorable moments, and aura of the Olympics, I will be interested to see what it does to elevate marketing and social media within the industry as a whole.
