for the Digiday Programmatic Marketing Summit, May 6-8 in Palm Springs.
Brands obviously love their followers, but these days it’s beginning to feel like they love each other even more. What was a noticeably phenomenon during the Super Bowl, has only intensified this Valentine’s Day. Have you felt the love?
Here’s a few brands gettin’ it on today. Get a chat room, guys:
Swiffer blows a kiss at IAMS:
Dogs aren’t the only ones that will roll over for you, @IAMS. You’ve got me going in circles. #xoxoSweepTrap pic.twitter.com/ZKnd9dULNv

And at Oldspice:

Intel made a mildly nauseating Vine Valentine (a Valenvine?) for Toshiba:

Hershey’s sends (a photo of) one of their plastic rose tube things to People Mag, among other magazines:

Uh, so Crest sent Oral B a Charmin-branded valentine? The bathroom is getting crowded, folks:

This isn’t directed toward another brand, but it made us wonder how many people down Pepto-Bismol after that first kiss:
Love. It can be nauseating sometimes. We feel you. Happy Valentine’s Day, regardless. — Pepto-Bismol (@Pepto) February 14, 2014
Charmin. Never one to shy away from cute-but-corny puns:

DiGiorno retweeted some fan-made #Tweethearts:

Lastly, we’re not sure what to make of this, but Yo Gabba Gabba! apparently wants to eat Anthony Bourdain?
