Weekend fun: Microsoft's 'Googlighting' video

WATCH the new spot by Microsoft that takes on rival Google

Weekend fun: Microsoft's 'Googlighting' video

In a new chapter in the Microsoft vs Google war, Microsoft has released a digital spot called 'Googlighting' which is supposed to depict what happens when "the world's largest advertising business tries to sell productivity software on the side".

However, the spot had 10,417 dislikes, compared to 4,148 likes (at the time this was being written) on Youtube, and the war of words was still going on by defenders of both sides.

What will be more interesting to see is Google's retaliation.

Tell us what you think of the spot, and how Google could get back.
