<title>Google Adwords Makes an Expensive Thank You Card</title>

<p>October marked the 10th anniversary of Google&#8217;s Adwords, its main source of revenue and a feature that revolutionized the way people advertise on the internet. Last year, Adwords generated $23 billion in revenue, and Google decided it was time to send a thank you card to the over 1 million clients that made its flagship product an immense success.</p>
<p>AKQA San Francisco called upon PostPanic to create a card that could be customized to integrate clients&#8217; names into the video. While, as you&#8217;ll see in the video, PostPanic.com is the client in question, Google&#8217;s clients have the ability to make any company part of their elaborate thank you card. Sure, the technology in the ad might be a tad exaggerated, but as the video is all shot in and around Google HQ in Mountain View, California, it&#8217;s not beyond the realm of possibility that &#8220;B2B bees,&#8221; moon lasers and massive domino setups could actually be based off of Google&#8217;s own technological experiments.</p>
<p>Hats off to Google because, really, who&#8217;s nice enough to send a thank you card anymore? Credits after the jump.</p>
