Super Bowl XLIV just came to an end with an impressive victory for the Saints against the Colts – something which I didn’t want. Regardless of the game itself, the much anticipated advertisements of the Super Bowl didn’t deliver this year. The tech advertisements were few, being only for the Motorola DEVOUR, GoDaddy, Intel, Google, and Vizio. Most of the other advertises were for beer, chips, or some other random stuff (shoes?).
Something made Eric Schmidt go excited today on Twitter, encouraging his followers to watch the third quarter Super Bowl ads tomorrow. He had this to say in his tweet:
Can’t wait to watch the Superbowl tomorrow. Be sure to watch the ads in the 3rd quarter (someone said “Hell has indeed frozen over.”)
Why? Either his in love with the Doritos spot, or Google has an ad to air. We’ll assume the latter since John Battelle has received word from “a reliable source” that Google will air the Search Stories ad named Pairsian Love during the Super Bowl’s 3rd quarter ad break.
