Many advertisers have chosen to use FaceBook groups and fan pages to promote a brand in a positive interactive manner. Some of these savvy organizations include the following:
Coca Cola has as always uniquely influenced their power house brand being the 4th most trending of Super Bowl advertisers. Share a bottle of Coke on FaceBook and stand a chance to preview Super Bowl adverts. Excellent!

Budweiser are to occupy 5 minutes of viewing time and have used social media to encourage you to vote for the ad. you think is best for the spot.
Target, although not one you would expect to see here are using social media. Themed around Valentines Day; voters choose a charity and Target gives away $1 million.
I think we all know enough about the Pepsi efforts with the Refresh Project. The NFL have also climbed in asking fans to tag their tweets and Flickr photos with a SB44 hashtag (#SB44), providing an interactive Super Bowl interface. I for one am so excited during this entertaining social media frenzy. If the results are positive, imagine the great news headlines presented to those not convinced.
