Google advertising in Olean! (from Washington Post)

Google Uses YouTube Clips To Hype Chrome - washingtonpost.com:

Now why would anyone think this is unusual? lol....and BTW I did see the billboard.
"Google doesn't really advertise its products?its business is to get other people to advertise theirs. So when the company takes the time and money to heavily promote something (in this case, Google has turned to YouTube to hype its browser, Chrome) people tend to notice. The last product Google (NSDQ: GOOG) went out of its way to promote was its free phone directory service, GOOG-411. People spotted billboards for the service in random places like relatively rural Olean, N.Y. and downtown San Francisco (via SEL)."
