Google is to me what Apple is to the Apple cult. However, I wonder if they went a little overboard with their ad campaign for the Chrome browser. Clearly, someone was trying to take a leaf out of the ingenious 'Mac Vs PC guy' ads. Take a look.
Now, leaving aside the exception that members of LGBT community may take to the rather suggestive innuendo in "Definitely not Gray", I am surprised that Google would resort to such language in an ad campaign. I'd probably have found this hilarious were I watching SouthPark but in a Google campaign... tut-tut.
Also, and correct me if I am wrong here (I am colour-blind after all) but does anyone else find the whole idea of using a heretofore unexposed/little known feature of the Youtube API (I'm talking about the changing backgrounds bit) for promoting its own product and the whole set of bright, colourfully cheerful/loud/flowery backgrounds is all rather... uhm... "gray"?

Chrome in my opinion makes a browsing experience anything but a browsing experience... its like playing solitaire with all the swishing cards..or maybe
I'm biased because its..DEFINITELY NOT "GRAY".
