Best Damn Tech Show, Period.

So in case you don’t know, advertising sucks for the most part.   Rarely do I see an ad that makes me want to buy something.   However, that has changed with the new ad for the Apple iPod Touch.

It’s not just the ad, it’s the story behind it.

Basically, regular Joe, err Nick….Nick Haley, who is a student, created an ad for the iPod touch as a project.

It was pretty cool:

Apple reached out to him and instead of asking him to remove it because it wasn’t created by them, they asked if they could touch it up a bit (pardon the pun), and put it on TV.   That’s how a company should be run.

I’m notoriously a PC fan who recently converted to Apple.  This is why.   The ad was well done, and just because it wasn’t done by an Apple employee or an ad agency, doesn’t mean the world shouldn’t see it. 

Bravo apple.  The ad will sell a few million of these hot hot sexy machines.  Not only that, but it’ll sell a few singles for the band CSS.  The song is stuck in my brain.  That’s advertising.
