Tu est trés mignon December 2, 2009

Google has started a new strand of YouTube videos called “Search Stories“, in effect showing the impact of Google searching on our lives.

It’s a ridiculously simple advert for Google but it’s clever in that way, turning the mundane task of Googling something into a major life event.

For example, there’s one video imagining what a pre-Batman Bruce Wayne would have searched for, with a ‘dark’ soundtrack and search terms like “coping with loss” and “stitching your own wound”.

It should be ridiculously corny but my favourite has to be “Parisian Love” (below) – the story of boy meets (French) girl, told only through the medium of Google searches in 53 seconds. Beautiful. More of this please Google.
