It was by far my favorite ad during the Super Bowl this year. As it turns out (and it figures) Google has been running it for quite awhile on YouTube.
But I certainly hadn’t seen it before. To show you what a sap I am, I utterly adored it. Telling a story through a series of Google queries seemed not only heartfelt and witty in comparison to all the lame beer commercials and jock humor, but also the most thematically spot on: search after all is what Google is about.
Houses made out of Bud Lite, coffins filled with Doritos? I didn’t just dislike those — I hated them. Ick.
Here is the Google ad, in case you missed it. Enjoy!
