What a great way to promote the new Madden video game. Madden crushes the videos adjacent to his video ad. Not the first use of an ad interacting with surrounding content, but a brilliant application. Hats off to the agency. Dare you identify yourself?
My son Grant wakes up first. Every day. Then, after feeding Freddy, he settles down onto the computer. “Dad- did you see the new Google?” He showed me Ernie & Burt on Google, and I did a search to confirm we hadn’t missed the local Jim Henson exhibit (ends Nov. 29). While telling Grant about…
What happens when a kid gets a little carried away with Round Up? The weed strikes back. And it’s not a pretty site. By the way- you weren’t thinking the title “Killer Weed” meant something else, were you?
In today’s YouTube “highest rated comedy videos of the day,” my videos represent spots 5, 6 and 8. YouTube, as you probably know, represents the vast majority of online viewing. So does this mean I produced the funniest videos on the planet this weekend? Of course not. I have an advantage because I have a…
Need web hosting? I use BlueHost.com, and it’s less than $7 bucks and comes with easy WordPress install. It seems to work pretty well- I can even figure out how to do things sometimes all by myself. Go sign up to BlueHost using this link (or click the blue host ad in the sidebar) — I’ll get…

Peter – far too clever and funny. Jeez man, I’m starting my day here trying to catch up. Jerk. 🙂
I like butter.
I have to agree it was a pretty cool ad. I don’t really care about the product they’re advertising, but it’s nice to have ads that are clever instead of irritating.

Ditto to 1, 6 and 7
anyone have a link?
So Kevin will never wear his Nalts cap again after he gets this forehead hair. Isn’t that going to be strange?
