Ask In Primetime

As Barry points out, we have some new ads running on many of your favorite shows. For your viewing pleasure, they're posted below. The underlying theme is that search is still evolving and searchers are still evolving. The tools we've created at Ask that make searching better and faster are examples of that evolution. (So you should, like, try it out and see for yourself!)

Let us know what you think!

CAFÉ
In the midst of an Internet cafe where searchers have yet to evolve, one discovers Ask.com's unique tools starts remembering what it's like to feel human.

ANIMALS IN PANTS
A scientist using the Binoculars tool on Ask ponders the question of what separates man from beast...and gets some help from an unexpected source.

Very nicely done. Could you please post the name of the firm that did the makeup effects? Many thanks.

These commercials are HILARIOUS, I've been searching the web for them since I saw them. As a grad student working on evolution I may like to use them in a future presentation on Evolution as an Icebreaker.
Again, Hilarious!

i love the cafe ad. i especially love the music, and have been going nuts trying to find out who it is. it's a very groovy early 70's reggae insturmental. probably by a bunch of today's youngsters.

anyone have any leads?

I love the new commercial with the "big foot" using ask.com to find out how to "talk to girls". It's cute! By the way, does anyone know what 70's song is playing in the background?

Oh my God, yes! Can anyone remember the name of that song. It's driving me crazy!!!! Will someone please post it if they figure it out?
Thanks.

Animals in Pants is my favorite spot right now. It's funny every time. "I'm hungry."

Cool, I was trying to figure out the title and artist of that song for years, and when I heard it in your commercial I knew it was my chance to figure it out!
