The First iPad Ad: Brutally Honest Edition

Click here to read The First iPad Ad: Brutally Honest Edition
Apple aired its first iPad ad during the Oscars last night, but it felt like something was missing, didn't it? It was a voiceover. So I went ahead and added one for them. You're welcome, Apple!

Let's Make.Believe Sony Ads Make Sense!

Click here to read Let's Make.Believe Sony Ads Make Sense!
Sony's newest catchphrase, "make.believe," is a fitting reminder that Sony ads make no sense. Laptops take flight, PlayStations become monsters, and pitchmen state plainly that Sony TVs make you better at playing sports. Most of all—look! Play-doh bunnies! More »

Now Google Holds a Location-Based Advertising Patent

Apple may be the current get-the-patents-then-sue-other-people-for-them guy, but Google's loading up on their own too, and this time it's for a subject that they really love: Advertising. More »

Does the Mac vs PC Ad Song Sound Like Baby Music?

You know that Mac vs PC music in EVERY ad? Do you think it sounds like baby music? Because everyone at Gizmodo just got into a huge debate over it and are not talking to each other now. Tiebreaker please? More »

'Windows 7 Was My Idea, But to Be Fair, I Don't Know What I'm Talking About'

Those "Windows 7 was my idea" ads only make sense if you assume the people with the ideas weren't idiots. This take on the ads is more honest about what Microsoft would've gotten if they'd really crowdsourced their OS. [CollegeHumor]

Remainders - The Things We Didn't Post: Caught on Video Edition

It May Be Creepy, But This Case's Ad Is Popcorn-Worthy

I hate spiders, I hate horror movies, and I hate gimmicky computer cases. But I love the commercial for the Lian Li Mini-atx case. Maybe it's just because it reminded me of Steve Irwin. More »

Let's Help Comcast Transition to Xfinity

Have you guys heard?! Comcast's brand is so irreparably tainted by their horrible service, they're changing it to Xfinity! Yes, Xfinity. Hilarious! Let's help them transition by making some ads for them. More »

I Wonder How Many More OLPCs This Fake Ad Would've Sold (NSFW)

Do I even need to explain that a video entitled "One Laptop Per Third World Noob" might be a bit tasteless? Sure, I chuckled at the stick figures and the lewd child pornography references, but I'm also a terrible person. More »

Lego Short Film Makes Me Want to Play With Legos Immediately

CL!CK is a short film made by Lego about how Legos can inspire you to come up with great ideas. It's a fancy ad, to be sure, but a truly lovely one. [YouTube via NotCot]

Problems Tramping? You Need a Separate Sack Suspensory!

So what is tramping? It's a popular 1920s sport in which the player's testicles are launched back into his pelvis like water balloons, "just as nature intended." I think. [Modern Mechanix via Copyranter]

Best Buy Offers Free iPhone App For Free, If You Spend $10

Bundling a free Twitter iPhone app preloaded with your label's artists with CDs: fine. Advertising said bundle: also fine! But pitching this app as an "exclusive" deal, as if it isn't always free? Come on, guys. More »

A Surprisingly Meme-Savvy Health Care Company

I want to believe that Medica really did try to cut health care costs with the light saber app, waving their humming iPhones over financial statements while wearing robes. Now that would be a board meeting. [Thanks DaSazonator and Sam]
