Runners-up Apple and Facebook were far behind, with mentions in roughly 1.1 billion and 1 billion posts, respectively. <\/p>\n<p>The posts examined come from three sources, according to Infegy&#8217;s CEO Justin Graves. The Twitter firehose and public Facebook posts (roughly 1 to 2 million each day) account for roughly 60% of the data, while blogs and news sites where people are leaving comments make up the other 40%. Infegy&#8217;s web crawler is largely looking for RSS feeds in the latter instance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/adage.com\/article\/digital\/twitter-tops-list-2012-s-social-brands-2-8b-mentions\/239254\/\">Continue reading at AdAge.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/adage\/homepage\/~4\/5HP9cma20Nk\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"><\/p>\n<p>via Advertising Age &#8211; Homepage <a href=\"http:\/\/adage.com\/article\/digital\/twitter-tops-list-2012-s-social-brands\/239254\/?utm_source=feedburner&#038;utm_medium=feed&#038;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+adage%2Fhomepage+%28Advertising+Age+-+Homepage%29\">http:\/\/adage.com\/article\/digital\/twitter-tops-list-2012-s-social-brands\/239254\/?utm_source=feedburner&#038;utm_medium=feed&#038;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+adage%2Fhomepage+%28Advertising+Age+-+Homepage%29<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not only is Twitter the place where most online conversations are unfolding, it&#8217;s also the brand most likely to be mentioned in those conversations.
