More bad ads from Microsoft

other-ms-pdc2008-video.pngI'm not for laying people off, but it seems like Microsoft should just "re-assign" everyone in the advertising and marketing departments.  Their latest online ad is a You Tube video for the PDC 2008, and no one word could describe it.  Let me try a few words ... scarey.  sad.  without focus.  worse than the Apple flashdance ad (which before this was the most painful 3:48 of my life, this is now the number one at 3:57).

The advertisement is for the PDC, but I didn't really understand that until the last part when it was written on the screen.  The intro is spoken to fast, the middle is completely illegible, and the end should have everyone walking out of the room, not just Brian.

Anyways, if you are up for a bit of Microsoft based humor, take a look here.
