First GoDaddy SuperBowl Ad Caused TIVO Spike


The coolest thing about Tivo is turning out to be the data that can be derived by the Tivo network which shows activity rates. They monitor the "repeat" feature for example so they can tell how many people replayed an ad.

The Ameriquest SuperBowl Ads Were Hilarious

The other company that made a big splash in the SuperBowl this year was Ameriquest. If you didn't know who they were prior to the last night, you most likely remember their name. Their ads were hilarious. Here are the links to all 4 ads.

The Classiest SuperBowl Ad - Applause For Troops


The SuperBowl commercials as usual provided quite a few laughs, but the most memorable moment was the "Applause For The Troops" ad. We all sat in silence as the ad played and at the end we all agreed that Anheuser-Busch had pulled off one of the Classiest moves in recent memory. If you missed it, you definitely want to watch this one!

ThankYou to the Troops!

GoDaddy "Rejected" SuperBowl Ad

This one is funny, but I can see why Fox rejected it. It's a little too sexy for kids and I'm sure others will find it offensive as well. After last year's Janet Jackson episode, I'm sure the censors are working overtime this year!

Show me the ad, I can handle it!

The Banned SuperBowl Budweiser Ad

One of the highlights of SuperBowl advertising this year is the introduction of ads that are "Rejected" by the censors and/or networks. This ad from Budweiser was considered too controversial after last year's SuperBowl half-time scandal.

The SuperBowl Ad That Started It All.....

Do you remember the huge splash that Steve Jobs made in 1984 with his SuperBowl ad that launched the Macintosh Computer? At that time, it was the most innovative new product introduction in history.

Since then, there have been many who have tried to recapture that type of magic. But it's always tough to beat the original. Steve Jobs is truly an entrepreneurial genius.
