It's Halloween and that can mean only two things. The World Series is over and candy goes on sale. And only one of those things make me... wait for it.... snicker.
But with the end of October means the end of a Classic and the World Series truly was classic. 7 games, great storylines, and another long off season for Nolan Ryan and his Texas Rangers. Now that it's over, it's time to see how the World Series played out on Twitter.
Well, the buzz was higher than last year. According to BuzzStudy, the Twitter buzz for the 2011 World Series is TWICE that of last year's Fall Classic. And that was only including Game 6. The figures are not updated for Game 7 and the Cardinals closeout, which will only increase that figure. (I highly recommend checking out this site which follows popular Twitter trends and gives user-friendly graphs. (Did you know that Kim Kardashian's Twitter popularity has never been higher because of her recent divorce after 72 days of marriage? I didn't care, but the figures are pretty impressive)
And my girl, Maria Burns Ortiz, has a good article on the World Series and Twitter. Here is hoping that they publish the updated figures for the entire World Series soon. And you know it's gonna be good, IBM has put there name on this baby.
