Super Bowl ads : Go Daddy/GoGaddy.com 2013

Sex does not sell. Instead of having sexed up models stripping, pole dancing or prancing in a wet t shirt, the GoDaddy.com 2013 commercial has gone back to revisit their basics of advertising..that is, focus on what they sell. They kept their promise made before the Olympics 2012 that they would steer away from sensual tv commercials that they have come to be associated with.

The latest GoDaddy Commercial revolves around couples around the world discussing to put their "Big Idea" on Internet business online, each thinking they are the first to have the brainstorm but finally only one registers a domain name on GoDaddy.com and cashes in on the "Big Idea".

Go Daddy has teamed up for the third straight year with .CO domain encouraging entrepreneurs to buy a .CO with GO Daddy.

Danica Patrick makes cameo appearance towards the end of the 30-sec comic clip.

HP Deaf DJ

This is the original mix by Zedd called Stache which is used in the HP Envy Ultrabook Ad.

This is a video of DJ Robbie Wilde talking about how he "sees" music and how HP Touch is the best in class for him to cope with his limitation of being deaf.
Born deaf in the right ear and losing the sense of hearing by 80% in  the left ear, Robbie did not stop listening to music. Though he has his limitations where  lyrics are concerned, he maneuvers his way through with beats and bass. He does not just remix but creates music. He does not just sustain in the competitive world of DJ-ing but excel at it as the only 'deaf' musician.
