When celebrities want a quickie, it's no small affair. Attempting to remain inconspicuous, Madonna and Alex Rodriguez boarded two separate private helicopters to rendezvous in the Hamptons at Jerry Seinfeld's waterfront mansion recently, it is now being reported. They were picked up separately from the airport in white Porsches and black SUVs. Because private helicopters and flashy cars and SUVs are hard to miss! How nice of Jerry and wife Jessica to lend Madriguez their ...

Taken from the Onion: “The Microsoft ads, which began airing earlier this week, are being blamed for generating critical system errors in more than 70 million televisions. In addition, thousands of frustrated Americans said that the ads have caused their TVs to become unresponsive, their screens to turn blue, and a small box with the message “terminal application error” to suddenly appear. “I was in the middle of watching Monday Night Football when, all of ...

When it comes to minimalist architecture and interiors, nobody does it better than Japanese architects, they put out a surprising amount of hyper-minimalist work that is cold and sterile enough to eat sashimi off the floor! Takao Shiotsuka is a Japanese architect who has recently completed this minimalist house that sits in the middle of a walled compound overlooking the sea. Visit Takao Shiotsuka’s website - here.

Microsoft, what are you thinking? Seriously. Crispin Porter, the agency behind Microsoft’s seemingly failed ad campaign (and if not “failed”, then certainly “confusing”), has been kept on board for “phase two” of Microsoft’s $300 million ad campaign. The angle they are taking for phase two is a direct response to Apple’s successful Get A Mac ad campaign that features John Hodgman as “PC Guy”. In fact, the ad even has a lookalike. Reportedly, the ads ...

Filed under: Desktops, LaptopsAccording to a report from in the New York Times, the next phase of Microsoft's latest ad campaign is set to begin -- sans Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld. Apparently, the new ads do away with the unusual (and somewhat ill-received) banter and "real life" experiences of the two celebrities, and trade them for an earnest embrace of... Apple's "PC" character. Apparently, one of the new ads even begins with a John ...

I can’t say that I’m particularly surprised that the Microsoft ad campaign featuring Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates has been cancelled; the media outcry against it was just too great. Similarly, I can’t say I’m surprised that the bulk of the tech blogger set (and the ensuing piggy-backed mainstream media coverage) didn’t get it since the majority of the blogosphere are Apple fanboys. It hasn’t been cool to like Microsoft in a long time, though, ...

Microsoft has dropped comedian Jerry Seinfield from its ad campaign after widespread derision, according to a report from Valleywag later confirmed by Kara Swisher. You can see our full coverage on the campaign so far as follows: Microsoft says Seinfield, Gates ad a winner, Bill Gates Jerry Seinfield Microsoft Ad 2, Bill Gates Jerry Seinfeld Microsoft Ad and So Windows is like cheap shoes?

It's time for the second spot in the Crispin Porter & Bogusky-produced advertising campaign for Microsoft and Windows Vista. Unlike the last one, there's even a computer! Premiering in two parts during tonight's episode of Big Brother on CBS, the premise posits mundane comedian Jerry Seinfeld and Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates staying in a Seattle home with "real people" (like veteran actor David Costabile) in order to connect with consumers. Cue the hijinx. The question ...

Remember that first Seinfeld-and-Gates adventure into Shoe Circus, which alluded to something about Windows being “soft and chewy and delicious?” Well, the new Laural and Hardy of ambiguous advertising have a new spot out and it's... making fun of your average scalloped potato-eating, leather giraffe from Cabo-buying, grumpy Grandma-having Suburban family. The incredibly rich duo try to connect on a “normal people” level and kind of fail utterly. Like Windows Vista. I think. The ad ...

As expected, the new Windows Vista commercial with Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates debuted on Sept 4th as part of Microsoft’s $300 million advertising campaign to restore Vista’s public perception problem. A perception problem that has mushroomed into everybody and their brother pouring hate upon Vista without ever having used it and one that persists despite Vista users relatively positive experience with the OS. Will this new commercial do what “The Mojave Experiment” advertisements failed ...

Filed under: OS Updates, Apple, Microsoft Jerry Seinfeld, famous for developing a popular TV show "about nothing," seems to be at it again. Except this time he's part of a $300 million advertising campaign for Microsoft that also seems to be about nothing. And while nothing might be kind of funny in 22 minute segments that are always about something at their core, the first Microsoft commercial starring Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld really does ...
