Google’s Super Bowl Ad

In The Other Side on February 8, 2010

Incredibly effective and strangely moving. It brought a strong emotional connection to the mundane act of entering keywords. The ad is saying Google is more about freedom, and in that respect, I think it serves as a subtle rebuke to China’s Web censorship and human rights policies. (Editor’s note: And perhaps reminding us how good Google is: did you know about the translate function?)
