LUFTHANSA
March 4th 2008, by Jamie Riddell
A quickie,
Last night some footage was posted online which also made the UK terrestrial news. The footage was of a 'difficult' landing of a Lufthansa flight in the crosswind.
This video has been widely shared online, with the Youtube video receiving half a million views in just 2 days! [we've included in here in case you didn't see it]
Looking at the level of blog 'chatter' this video got over the past 24 hours has also seen an incredible spike in references to Lufthansa.
What is interesting about this incident is how quickly it can circulate to a huge global audience. But if you look again at the Blogpulse spike, you will see the speed at which this story will disappear.
The moral of this story [apart from, don't land in a gale] is that brand references online can come and go very quickly, it takes only the best teams to harness these blips.
