amazing taking into consideration there isn't a single Google commercial on television.

My first thought, exactly. Well, my first thought was no TV spots, no radio spots (at least where I live and travel), no newspaper ads (ditto), and no magazine ads (ditto). This is a testament to the power of satisfying customers and word-of-mouth marketing. Amazing.

Has anyone ever seen a Google advertisement in the traditional media? Heck, has anyone ever seen a Google banner ad anywhere?

GoogleGuy, do you guys even have an advertising department? What the heck do your marketing people do all day anyway? (I think that's Google's marketing team being represented in those commercials on ESPN where the guys are playing "shelf-ball" in the office.) :)
