Measuring Buzz: Twitter vs. iPhone

Working at TubeMogul has its perks, like a free account with all of our Premium Products and virtually unlimited bandwidth. Lately, I’ve been playing around with our Buzz Tracking tool, which allows anyone to measure viewership data for all videos containing specific word (i.e. “Panasonic”) in the title, description and meta-tags. It’s a great way to measure “buzz,” an amorphous concept by which so many marketing people justify their jobs. I am currently tracking the following terms: “Twitter” and “iPhone.” The results are more dramatic than I imagined:

  • On YouTube alone, 3,410 videos mention “Twitter,” racking up a total of 36,546,345 cumulative views as of June 21st.
  • Even more impressive, over 53,000 videos mention the “iPhone,” racking up over 593 million views.
  • Lest we forget this is an election year, over 47,000 videos across YouTube and DailyMotion contain the words “Barack Obama,” totaling 347,335,462 views.
