Like the title said... I was talking on the phone (tech support for a mate) and just wiggling the mouse around as I do when I get impatient... And a video popped up!

Thing is, I actually liked it! lol, well done!

Was it the Peugeot or the Maori TV ad? Those are the two ones that I saw. I liked the Maori TV one because it had all the World Rugby Cup games listed.

OMG! that's where the Maori TV thing came from yesterday? I saw something and thought WTF? I didn't even think!

Tonights was the Pug ad and but I realised after about 2 secs... Very kewl ads, the both of them!

Those are the ads with the little bug on the bottom right, and are served from TribalFusion.

We have been using TF for years outside New Zealand (mainly US/CA and Europe) but they have just opened an office in the country so we can keep the relationship going locally too... And they have some cool ads.

They are some of the best ads I've seen...

mind you, I block ads on nearly every other site on the net bar here (can't afford a subscription ATM) :D
