Finally – a fan of those adverts :-)
Jeff loves the new Windows ads – but then you’d expect him to – as he’s a Microsoftee, but actually there’s been a lot of comments internally from techies who actually hate the adverts.
I’ve been saying how much I like them – not because I’m internal to Microsoft – or because I “have” to, but I like the fact that they show extraordinary people (Bill and Jerry) doing ordinary things which makes them real.
But i noticed this blog on Mashable the other day and Mark LOVES the ads. here are some of his reasons:
People are “overthinking” them
Inside jokes
appealing to the general public – (not just the techies who think they know better)
He wants to hang around with both Bill and Jerry as they make him feel good
Pretty much my sentiments actually – and I’d love to get to know them better actually so I’m looking forward to the next one.
