Google’s ad last night attracted quite a bit of attention.

Kenneth Corbin of Internet News said,

For Google, Super Bowl Sunday was something of a departure.

In the third quarter of the game, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) aired a nearly full-minute ad promoting its search engine, marking one of the few television appearances for the company that rarely advertises and its first spot during a Super Bowl.

At it happens, the ad, “Parisian Love,” had been online for several months, posted on Google’s “Search Stories” page on YouTube where it has been viewed more than a million times.

Dan Goldgeier of AdPulp points out that so has this parody from Slate:

Florida divorce attorneys almost make the cut.  Is Google trying to tell us something?  Is Slate?
