Microsoft Goes After Google with Videos

Microsoft has been going after Google in a big way lately.  We have seen them offer Windows phone handsets to disgruntled Android users, they have offered instructions for moving your data from Google Docs to Office web Apps, and this week they attacked Google on privacy.  Now two new Microsoft video are making the rounds online and both are clever attacks on, once again, at Google Docs.

One ad, titled “Googlighting” features a character very similar to the Gmail Man from previous Microsoft videos.  It goes into detail about what is missing in Google Docs and how it can change without notice, not to mention Google’s perpetual Beta for many of their products.  The second is less techie and plays more like a TV ad.  You can check out both videos below.
