Google's Superbowl Ad

ah I see, did not know they aired it, no reason to feel sorry though, getting a beer instead of sitting thru that was time well spent.

That's what DVRs are for. I didn't miss a single play of the game, or the commercials, or the Who half-time show. Still a bit glazed over

I expect so much more out of a Super Bowl commercial. Come on Google you can do better than this

Well, here's what Eric Schmidt has to say about its lack of splashiness:

Google chief executive Eric Schmidt said tonight in a blog post that Google’s first-ever Super Bowl commercial was an accident of sorts. The ad, dubbed “ Parisian Love“, has been up on Y0uTube for three months already. The idea wasn’t to create a big splashy ad.

Rather, Schmidt wrote, “Our goal was simply to create a series of short online videos about our products and our users, and how they interact. But we liked this video so much, and it’s had such a positive reaction on YouTube, that we decided to share it with a wider audience.”
