In this delightful French TV ad for La Poste, France’s national postal service, a man demonstrates the process of mailing a letter online. He reads the instructions, clicks on “send via computer,” and then, to his surprise, the computer turns into a spaceship and flies out the window. The simplicity of the concept and the way it’s materialized is just great, a rarity in a world full of over-processed commercials.

if only the french postal service was that easy…
Endless queueing, cripple website, angry employees, lazy desk people,…
it’s getting better but still.
“I had OTHER work to do today, you know.”
Surely the company who made the excellent Citroen ad with the dancing transformer? Someone out there knows!

Nice! Now we need a Brown airship for UPS!
I love that the thrusters leave little scorch-marks on the desk. Very cute.
