Nielsen Twitter TV&nbsp;Rating will serve as a companion to Nielsen&#8217;s existing TV&nbsp;ratings, allowing networks and advertisers to get real-time metrics about TV&nbsp;audience social activity. The service will enhance the social TV&nbsp;analytics currently available from SocialGuide by adding the first-ever measurement of the total audience for social TV&nbsp;activity. This includes those participating in the conversation and those who are exposed to the activity. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&ldquo;The Nielsen Twitter TV Rating is a significant step forward for the industry, particularly as programmers develop increasingly captivating live TV and new second-screen experiences, and advertisers create integrated ad campaigns that combine paid and earned media,&rdquo; said Steve Hasker, the president of global media products and advertiser solutions at Nielsen. &ldquo;As a media measurement leader we recognize that Twitter is the preeminent source of real-time television engagement data.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&ldquo;Our users love the shared experience of watching television while engaging with other viewers and show talent. Twitter has become the world&#8217;s digital water cooler, where conversations about TV happen in real time. Nielsen is who the networks rely on to give better content to viewers and clearer results to marketers,&rdquo; added Chloe Sladden, Twitter&rsquo;s VP of media. &ldquo;This effort reflects Nielsen&#8217;s foresight into the evolving nature of the TV viewing experience, and we&rsquo;re looking forward to collaborating with Twitter ecosystem partners on this metric to help broadcasters and advertisers create truly social TV experiences.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&ldquo;The proliferation of smartphones and tablets has generated a substantial &lsquo;connected&rsquo; TV audience that is simultaneously watching television and accessing the Internet through these devices<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">,&rdquo; said David F.

As this form of viewer engagement evolves into a mainstream activity, it presents ways for CBS to enhance the viewing experience for our viewers and our advertisers.  We are already engaged with Nielsen and Twitter in a program of research and experimentation in this exciting new area. We are pleased to see Nielsen and Twitter join together to provide a comprehensive measurement system that will allow us to employ these social networking tools to their full advantage.&quot;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK\/SAN FRANCISCO: Nielsen and Twitter are teaming up to deliver a syndicated-standard metric for the reach of the TV&nbsp;conversation on the social micro-blogging site, dubbed Nielsen Twitter TV&nbsp;Rating.
