The game is over, so let's talk about the commercials. YouTube uploaded every ad that aired during the Super Bowl last night. You can watch and vote for each ad here.

There were definitely some memorable standouts this year like Motorola's ad with Megan Fox in a bathtub and Monster.com's "Fiddling Beaver." We're kind of done with GoDaddy's "Too Hot for TV" schtick. Boost Mobile's remake of the "Chicago Bears Super Bowl Shuffle" was definitely entertaining but our favorite ad by far was Google's "Parisian Love." What about you? Tweet was your favorite.

Have you ever asked yourself how cold it would have to get to freeze an animal dead in its tracks? Well if so, the answer is -28 degrees F. That’s how cold it was in Silt, Colorado when this coyote froze solid right in it’s tracks. There are more frozen coyote picts over at Knuckles United.

Ever see 40 wild birds play a Gibson Les Paul guitar before? Us either until we found this
clip on the BBC. The video is of an installation by a contemporary French artist Celeste Boursier-Mougenot. The birds are in a glass walled room with grass, a little drinking pond, and a Les Paul guitar hooked up to an amplifier. The guitar is a frequent landing position
for the birds and each time one of them touches the strings, the guitar makes noise.

If you have a few mins then check it out [video]. Our favorite part is when one bird almost does a guitar solo using a twig.

Oops! David Kiely, an employee of Macquarie Bank, just became an Internet celebrity... for all the wrong reasons. The Australian banker was caught "analyzing" more than just interest rates on national TV while his colleague Martin Lakos was live on the air. Fast forward to 1:00 in the embedded clip above and you'll see Mr. Kiely to the left browsing something a little more sexy than spreadsheets. To make things worse, towards the end of the clip he realizes his blunder and looks right at the camera.

In all fairness, the picts appear to just be supermodel Miranda Kerr's GQ Magazine shoot. Not X-rated, but still definitely embarrassing. Macquarie Bank is currently reviewing the situation and Mr. Kiely's fate is unclear. After the clip became a YouTube sensation, Macquarie’s human resources department emailed the bank’s entire 11,500 employees worldwide and asked them to "familiarize themselves with" the company's internet policy.
