Top Ten on Facebook: Tattoos and food didn't always go together

It wasn't always the case that a food brand would consider integrating a tattoo into their corporate communcations, as Taco Bell has done -- quite effectively -- here. It's also nice to see two cars, one electric and one hybrid, generating this much enthusiasm.

Top Ten: Starbucks new Facebook photo campaign looks primed for virality

Funny stuff from Starbucks. While this is a brand post, the concept begs for audience participation. The Starbucks Frappuccino page doesn't have near the fan posting activity that the main Starbucks page has, even though they have comparable fan counts. This could be a good effort to resolve that for the Frappuccino page.

Top Ten: How basic product photos make a big splash on Facebook

A couple of posts this week grabbed my attention, quite literally. The Starbucks and Dr. Pepper posts. While one simply uses POV and the other a little 'Shop, the main image on each is a pretty basic product shot.

Top Ten: Ferrari's Facebook post comes in first place

Ferrari takes first place for the first time since we've been charting the Top Ten. However, given Ferrari is almost always in the Top Ten, it was only a matter of time.

I've commented on the frequency and abundance of luxury products in the Top Ten, but this week we have 3 low cost fashion brands in the Top Ten. Maybe what people 'like' isn't just expensive things, but things they can actually afford.
