Happy Hour: Don’t Vote

The viral video of the week is not a Tina Fey portrayal of Sarah Palin, rather Google’s PSA encouraging people to vote. The video is chock full of every star imaginable including Forrest Whitaker, Sarah Silverman, Dustin Hoffman, Ellen DeGeneres, Tobey McGuire, and Jennifer Aniston and Jamie Fox.

Though long-time Ken Sunshine client and cause-meister Leonardo DiCaprio is the anchor, Superbad co-star Jonah Hill steals the spotlight with some good lines:

“I have 19 kids. Never used abortion once…I’ve never fought a war on drugs. I’ve never done shit on drugs besides play Halo 2.”

The video pushes viewers to www.maps.google.com/vote, an easy-to-use resource to find out the registration deadlines in respective states.

Traffic was pushed all week long by A-list blogs including Lifehacker, Mashable, TechCrunch, and of course, the Official Google Blog.
