Super Bowl ads '08: Garmin

By Kathy Bushouse February 2, 2008 01:00 PM

Here is GPS maker Garmin's entry for the 2008 Super Bowl Ad Sweepstakes. I don't know that I'm going to rush out to buy a GPS, but it's clever and the music is good.

Random thought for you readers: Do you think YouTube will lessen the importance of Super Bowl advertising? If we can find this commercial on the Internet and watch it now, in the future will companies still want to pay a premium to get Super Bowl air time? I'm curious to know what you think -- after you watch this clip.

About the author

The Internet: It's like your parents. It cares for you, feeds you, lets you sleep in its bed when you're awake at night... it's always there. Our solemn mission at "Thank you, Internet" is to give it a phone call once in a while, compliment it on its watercolor drawings and buy it birthday cards - metaphorically speaking, of course. Your job is to sit back and enjoy our frenzied attempts to celebrate said Internet, in all it's weirdness, utility and blatant stupidity. By the end of your visit, you too will be saying, "Thank you, Internet."

For him, it's a crossroads where college humor and the most valuable scholarly information can be found and, in some cases, even melded.
