Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld go to Shoe Circus - VIDEO
Filed under: Video, Commercials, Celebrities, Reality-Free We talked about this when they announced that Jerry Seinfeld had signed on to promote Windows for Microsoft. If you were watching the big NFL kickoff Thursday night, you might have seen what that looked like. If you missed it, it's embedded after the jump. I've watched the commercial a few times now, and I'm torn. I agreed with Brad's take in the original post, that Seinfeld may be a few years past the point of ideal pitchman. That being said, the

Bill Gates And Jerry Seinfeld Go To Shoe Circus
Gabe probably doesn't think it's funny, but the first of the Microsoft ads starring Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld and directed by Michel Gondry aired last night. It's one of those little short film vignette commercials that seem to have nothing to do with the product being advertised. I think it's funny: It's as if Michel Gondry directed part of a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode. Posted by Lindsay at 9:00 AM in Commercials Tags: Bill Gates | Curb Your Enthusiasm | Jerry Seinfeld

Seinfeld, Bill Gates Waste 90 Seconds Not Talking About Microsoft [Advertising]
Less than two weeks after Microsoft confirmed that it had picked the Mac-loving Jerry Seinfeld as its new endorser, this ad with Seinfeld and Bill Gates is everywhere. And it is awful. I mean, it's kind of engaging to see this half-billionaire comedian kicking it in a shoe store with the many-billionaire Microsoft nerd-in-chief; but up until the final seconds, I was convinced this was an ad for Payless. And I may be stupid, but I'm still your target audience, Microsoft. Surely Sarah Silverman and Willie Nel

Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates Microsoft Ad
Microsoft released their first ad co-starring Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld. It’s not funny. It’s not entertaining. It’s a waste of money. Jerry got paid $10, and Microsoft plans to spend $300 million on the campaign. Jerry’s fine, but Microsoft really need to fire their ad agency and hire a new one. Steve Jobs will always be the cooler geek Bill. Related posts: Jerry Seinfeld New Face of Microsoft Tom Brokaw Interviews Bill Gates on His Last Day Je

For Just $10 Million, Jerry Seinfeld Gave Microsoft This Shoegazing Stumper [Jerry Seinfeld]
newVideoPlayer("/jsmicro_def.flv", 506, 423,""); In its bid to top the deceptively simple "I"m a Mac/I'm a PC" ad campaign of its rival, Microsoft went big, hiring auteur Michel Gondry to direct a commercial featuring Jerry Seinfeld alongside Bill Gates. For his involvement, Seinfeld was handsomely compensated to the tune of $10 million — a big number, but small potatoes compared to the whole ad campaign's rumored $300 million budget. For that kind of cash, you might expect the end result to be an or

Bill Gates uses 10,000 times the energy of the average American
Time to start the finger-pointing again. A class at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has begun to track the carbon footprint of different lifestyle in different nations.

If you are looking for people with the worst carbon footprint, look among the super-rich such as Bill Gates and Oprah Winfrey, MIT says. It is comm

Jerry Seinfeld is the new face of Microsoft
So Jerry Seinfeld, who I’m sorry, IS JUST NOT THAT FUNNY, is now the new spokesperson for Microsoft, doing some major damage control for the crapfest commonly known as Windows Vista. Jerry’s going to be getting a whopping $10 million dollars for this sweet little gig, in which he’ll be appearing with Microsoft CEO Bill Gates in a series of ads. The ads will be focused on the catchphrase “Windows not Walls” in order to demonstrate that yes, Vista sucks, but look at this here p
