Google & the web is what you make of it campaign

The great thing about Sky+ is that you skip the adverts, but I have been missing out as I saw the coolest advert last night for Google Chrome.<p>

It’s about Jamal Edwards, founder of SBTV. I’ve not heard or read anything about him up until this point so I have obviously had my head stuck in the sand. But at 16 he started his own music channel and today it is the largest youth music channel in the UK and is about to head over to the US to do the same there.

The advert itself is so simple but it tells a killer story.

In business, age is becoming less and less important & as startup costs are now minimal I hope that the UK sees more and more young entrepreneurs emerging. All you need is an idea (it doesn’t even need to be an original one) and passion to see it through. Easy right?!?

Here’s something completely different, but also from Google Chrome. This is equally amazing and inspiring:
