From a trusted Crispin Porter source, we’ve learned that the internet has jumped the gun and that the Microsoft Gates/Seinfeld ads have not been axed. It’s true, Microsoft apparently asked the agency to focus on the new “I’m a PC” spots. And it’s true, the agency has gotten plenty of “I don’t know what this means” response in their measured statistics of the Gates/Seinfeld ads. But no one has pulled the plug on the dynamic duo just yet.
Even the roughest of characters among us would have to admit that babies can be cute. Not necessarily at first, but once they start smiling and giggling and stop crying and pooping all the time, they can be a symbol of pure beauty in this world.
But what about before they’re born? We’ve already seen 3D ultrasounds that can be copied to your iPods to watch your unborn child writhing around inside the uterus, and the general consensus in the comments was that there wasn’t anything too cute about that. Of course, it’s not just about appearances – the technology also offers medical benefits, like the ability to spot defects and illnesses earlier in the pregnancy.
Now Philips is showing off its concept for what ultrasounds will look like in the future. Aside from having the child look like it’s in a pod that you can reach out and touch, the biggest change to the process for Philips is creating a more welcoming atmosphere than the stench of death that tends to waft around hospitals (or is that just disinfectant?).
I’m not a parent yet, so I’m not really one to comment, but I don’t like going to a hospital for any reason. What do you guys think? Would you prefer to be able to walk up to a weird-looking pod with a 3D ultrasound of your unborn child in a relatively welcoming environment?
A professor from the University of L’Aquila in Italy says has discovered a clue which may point the way to the fabled G-Spot—or at least prove that some lucky ladies have it, while others don’t. Emmanuele Janini’s findings (he scanned 20 women, 11 who experienced vaginal orgasms and nine who didn’t, with a vaginal ultrasound) have set off a raging debate inside the wonderful world of lady-pleasure.
