Campaign Viral Chart: Google's Valentine's doodle video is most shared

The video, breaking a three-week run of Super Bowl ads dominance at the top of the chart, has generated 90,103 shares on Facebook and 256 blog posts since its release.

Super Bowl ads from H&M, Volkswagen and M&Ms are the only ones to remain in this week's chart.

Sharing of H&M's ad for David Beckham's bodywear range fell to under 10,000, the video having now been viewed more than two million times.

A resurgence in the sharing of a Wheat Thins ad, starring Brian and Stewie from US cartoon series 'Family Guy', sees the video re-enter the chart after a two-week lapse.

An ad for Ecotricity, showing the demise of animated cooling towers in favour of wind turbines, enters the chart in third place with 25,180 shares.

The chart, produced in conjunction with Unruly, ranks ads according to the number of times they have been shared on Facebook, Twitter and the blogosphere.

Ads launched more than 30 days ago are not included.

Due to technical issues with Twitter's API, shares from the social network have not been included in this week's count.
