microsoft’s marketing department finaly realised that it’s latest ads weren’t getting the message across (thats assuming that there really was a message to begin with).
The ads featuring Jerry Sienfield and Bill Gates were ridiculously cryptic, far too long (the last one was four minutes long!) and just plain boring.
It should be interesting to see what Microsoft come up with next especial as according to TechCrunch they are retaining the marketing and advertising company, Crispin Porter & Bogusk, that made the terrible ads in the first place.
I guess some people never learn.
I know that are people out there who “get” the Microsoft ads and think they’re very clever. I dont think an add should be that cryptic, and I don’t believe that the majority of they’re customers understand the adds. I know they had everyone interested in tech talking about the adds but how many blogs and news articles had anything good to say about them?
