When the biggest broadcast advertising event of the year airs on Sunday, a large number of online players ranging from YouTube to Nielsen will be at the ready with user-enabled voting to ascertain the best and worst of the 30-second spot lot.
AOL will run its sixth annual Super Sunday Ad Poll with Verizon attached as a sponsor, allowing viewers to vote on their favorite spots. Video alpha dog YouTube will reprise its 2007 ad voting effort with a special channel at YouTube.com/adblitz. And social networking site MySpace has leaped in with a "Fans of the Super Bowl" ad viewing and voting section. More here.
