The month of July was a ball of fun on Twitter. From a faux movie starring The Rock and Siri (courtesy of Apple), to Myer bringing Katy Perry’s Witness tour to Australia, Twitter was full of star-struck moments.
Sports and health tech were big topics this month with @LadbrokesAU and @PhilipsHealth sparking conversations. Here are the brands that had Twitter users talking last month:
- @Apple
This month, Apple launched a new campaign for Siri that features The Rock — a powerful combo if you ask Twitter users in Australia who were talking about it for days! Many even tried to figure out if there was actually a real film coming out…
The Rock and Siri dominate the day. Click to watch the film. Boom. #ROCKxSIRI https://twitter.com/Apple/status/888811349668577280
