Simply Measured took a look at 98 of the top global brands on Twitter and found some eye-opening information.

During the final three months of 2013, 98 of Interbrand's top 100 global brands tweeted at least once and the average company tweeted 12 times per day, according to data from Simply Measured, a social media analytics provider.
