Speaking of hot flicks, I think that's a pretty good description of their server right about now.
And the loser is...
The FirefoxFlicks Server!
Already getting database errors.
I watched them all, and was completely underwhelmed. For one thing, they were obviously all the same. Secondly though, black text on a white background saying 'Connection to database could not be made.' just isn't funny, and doesn't make me want to use FireFox. It's also stretching the definition of 'video' too. Yes, technically it was something that was seen, and therefore video, but in common usage 'video' implies moving pictures.

Too bad Whee! was a winner. They'll have a hell of a time getting it past Nintendo now.

Maybe Microsoft will hire Gill for their Xbox campaign?

That Fox Forever chick was kinda hot, which detracts from the message by possibly causing 'popups'
