It seems all the negative publicity over the Jerry Seinfeld/Bill Gates ads has led to them being called to an end after only two weeks.  According to officials from Microsoft this campaign was always planned to move to a second phase fairly quickly, but it still seems a tad odd.

I think my personal problem with the ads wasn’t so much they were about nothing as it seemed insane for them to be spending $300 million on an ad campaign tha tnever once mentioned a product name.  To each their own, I am just hoping phase two isn’t even more annoying.
