Apparently, the gumosphere is all a-Twitter over Trident Layers chewing gum.
Headline for a Trident Layers ad (via Mashable) on the back page of Sunday’s New York Times Week in Review (!) section:
The people have Tweeted.
The ad’s visual is a stick of Trident Layers gum with a galaxy of tweets around it.
Representative sample: “Trident Layers gum may be my new obsession” (thank you, FitBottomedGirl).
And the aptly named amybites wrote, “I have chewed approximately a million pieces of Trident Layers today. I can’t stoooooopppp!!!”
And here’s lollieshopping: “Just chewed my 1st Trident Layers gum. Green apple + Golden pineapple. It was yummy and refreshing.”
Just to complete the circle, here’s lollieshopping’s tweet about being a tweeter in the Trident Layers “The people have Tweeted” ad:
Thank you to everyone for the props on being included in @tridentlayers print ad. Your sweet tweets made my day & I say that w/enthusiasm.
Sweet.
At the bottom of the Trident Layers ad it says we can “Follow the sweetness” here. So the hardworking staff at Campaign Outsider did.
We found a Trident Twitterpage filled with tweets that boil down to these three sentiments:
glad to see you liked the ad. hope you like our gum!
thanks so much for the compliment! much appreciated.
thanks for the kind words about our ad! have you had a chance to try our gum?
Our question:
Hey, Twit Nation – how do you like being advertising? Is it yummy and refreshing?
A real tweet, they twittered!
Bring back the Twit of the Year contest?
