Despite the fact that the Super Bowl is now 24 hours behind us, America and the Internet are still buzzing about last night's biggest plays, commercials, that nice new Chevrolet Corvette that Eli Manning is now a proud owner of. Both Google and Twitter have released their statistics about Super Bowl XLVI, and we've recapped them below.
Google starts off by saying that 41% of searches about Super Bowl advertisements made during the game came from mobile devices, which is up from 25% last year. During the game, the following list were the most-searched terms:
- Madonna
- Halftime show
- Patriots
- Tom Brady
- Giants
This year's Super Bowl was the first one ever that was live streamed on the Internet, and Google says that searches for "super bowl live stream" peaked at kickoff.
Finally, Google says that companies ads that were posted to YouTube, either in full or teaser mode, were watched more than 30 million times before kickoff Sunday night. "Game day searches for [super bowl ads] were 122 times higher than the same time last week," the web giant says. Acura, GoDaddy and M&M’s were the top three most popular ads in terms of Google searches made.
Twitter says that it saw a tweets per second (TPS) spike during this year's Super Bowl in the final three minutes of the game, shortly after the Giants' final touchdown. The TPS number is being listed as 12,233. Madonna's half time performance averaged 8,000 TPS, with a peak of 10,245 tweets.
