<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-740" title="logo_2010-Super-Bowl" src="http://www.techwaynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/logo_2010-Super-Bowl.gif" alt="" width="525" height="236" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Super Bowl XLIV just came to an end with an impressive victory for the Saints against the Colts &#8211; something which <a href="http://twitter.com/TScube/status/8756641363">I didn&#8217;t want</a>. Regardless of the game itself, the much anticipated advertisements of the Super Bowl didn&#8217;t deliver this year. The tech advertisements were few, being only for the <a href="http://www.techwaynews.com/2010/02/03/moto-devour-announcment/">Motorola DEVOUR</a>, GoDaddy, Intel, Google, and Vizio. Most of the other advertises were for <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXoPloew3bk&amp;feature=player_embedded">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFSEto4FKEs">chips</a>, or some other random stuff (shoes?).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Click the jump to see all the tech ads aired during Super Bowl XLIV.<span id="more-739"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">First up in line was the Motorola Devour commercial with Megan Fox. Although I fully support Android, and generally all the phones sporting it, this wasn&#8217;t just a fail, (I hate Megan Fox and the looks of the DEVOUR) it was an <em>epic</em> fail, at least for me. Also shocking, it wasn&#8217;t on <a href="http://youtube.com/adblitz">AdBlitz</a>.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/qffDaLmDinw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/qffDaLmDinw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Then came Beyonce playing for Vizio&#8217;s internet &#8220;widget&#8221; enabled TVs, pushing HDTVs far, but until I see one of them bragging OLED and 3D, I won&#8217;t make a buy since 3DTVs are soon poised to take over the market. Warning: WTF moment for the first few seconds.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/cHxmRSYDazE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/cHxmRSYDazE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Followed on by Intel&#8217;s Jeffery the lunch room robot and Core series ads. One thing does spring to mind: War of the Worlds. One thing doesn&#8217;t: <a href="http://www.techwaynews.com/2010/02/07/leaked-core-i7-macbook-pro-showing-off-specs/">MacBook Pros</a>.</p>

<p>Then&#8230;Parisian Love by Google, which <a href="http://battellemedia.com/archives/005116.php">John Battelle</a> correctly guessed yesterday and we correctly <a href="http://www.techwaynews.com/2010/02/06/does-google-have-a-super-bowl-ad/">reported on</a>. You could&#8217;ve guessed something more &#8220;American&#8221; in Search Stories, like <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EEPU65nF1U">Out of Office</a> or <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC8ogWwZxwQ">Mad to Live</a>, just posted yesterday. But still, it&#8217;s nice to see.<br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/nnsSUqgkDwU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/nnsSUqgkDwU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Maybe we&#8217;ll see an <a href="http://apple.com/iphone/gallery/ads">Apple ad</a> or two next year.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Something made <a href="http://twitter.com/ericschmidt/status/8738388895">Eric Schmidt</a> 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:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;">Can&#8217;t wait to watch the Superbowl tomorrow. Be sure to watch the ads in the 3rd quarter (someone said &#8220;Hell has indeed frozen over.&#8221;)</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Why? Either his in love with the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgkhY0w8v44">Doritos spot</a>, or Google has an ad to air.
