AUSTIN, TX -- (Marketwire) -- 02/01/13 -- Mass Relevance, the technology leader in social curation and integration, today announced that TaylorMade-adidas Golf has launched a Mosaic-styled social hub utilizing the Mass Relevance platform. Through Mass Relevance, TaylorMade offers consumers an engaging, interactive online destination that integrates real-time, brand-relevant social content from Twitter and Instagram.

The social hub experience -- which encourages participation and motivates visitors to join in the conversation -- includes editorial content from the brand along with Mass Relevance visualizations such as polls, photo walls and spotlight Tweets, all curated and re-displayed in real time.

"Through Mass Relevance, TaylorMade is able to integrate the most relevant and compelling social content from multiple sources into a single destination for consumers," said Sam Decker, founder and CEO of Mass Relevance. "The Mosaic social hub goes beyond simple streams to create dynamic visualizations that encourage content generation and amplification, and brings the TaylorMade brand to life in a new way. We're very excited to work with TaylorMade on this experience to drive social engagement."

The Mass Relevance platform breaks down the silo between social media and brand advertising to offer a new way to inspire consumers and bring their experiences into the center of the brand. Through Mass Relevance, brands can spark and guide consumer conversation by leveraging social media curated from sources such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and Google+.

Experiences created on the Mass Relevance platform are:

• Safe: Brands can now easily inspire consumers to generate and share relevant word of mouth from multiple mediums within a single, controlled experience that can be displayed across any digital endpoint.
  
  
• Relevant: Real-time social content is updated based on automated rules or hand moderation to create a continuously fresh user experience.
  
  
• Sharable: Both editorial brand content and user-generated content can be shared socially. Visualizations built into the experience facilitate content generation, enabling people to Tweet, post, or comment through the social platform of choice without leaving the branded site.
