Use Google and True Love is Guaranteed

Of the Super Bowl commercials we didn’t get to see in Canada because simulcasters are out to get us, this Google ad -- demonstrating how their system can create a romance between a French girl and a guy who uses the computer way too much -- was the most acclaimed. Josh Schwartz, creator of Chuck and Gossip Girl, called it "maybe the best commercial I’ve ever seen. Incredible storytelling. Genius." It is a pretty good illustration in how you can tell a genuinely visual, dynamic story without any people.
