Google Shows Its Zany Side With 15-Second Chrome Ads

Google gives three solid reasons for using Chrome and one nonsensical one in this new batch of ads for its Chrome browser.

As Business Insider speculates, this may be the first campaign from 72andSunny, the hot ad agency behind Samsung's and Carl's Jr.'s latest ads. 72andSunny won the account last month. Reps from the agency could not be reached for comment.

Though the ads will probably convince a few holdouts to try the browser, it also appears to be a nice branding exercise for Google, which gets to let its hair down a little.

What do you think of the latest ads? Let us know in the comments.
