Pizza Publicity Stunt at Google HQ

20060731CambrianHouse.jpg

Tech gossip blog Valleywag reports on a publicity stunt by software incubator Cambrian House. Their ploy? According to Valleywag, to "thank Google for changing the dot-com industry." There's video of the company dropping in on the Google campus unannounced to deliver 1,000 pies. The still image above shows the pile of pizza. Click the YouTube vid below to watch.

Quoth Valleywag:

There's so much to say about this nine-minute video, but it would distract from the pathetic purity and the narrator's painfully bouncy tone. Stick with it to the bitter end, when Cambrian House and their thousand pizzas get booted by security.

Bonus gag-me points: Calling pizza " 'za."

What a fantastic waste of money! I feel like I stepped back in time to 1999.
