Telling a story with Google Search queries

If you were watching the Super Bowl last night on U.S. television, you likely saw Google's advertisement, "Parisian Love," during the third quarter. What a clever way to tell a story, through a series of Google searches and some well-timed sound clips. If you missed it, here it is, on YouTube (of course.)

Is your school still blocking access to YouTube for everyone, including both teachers AND students? Time to unmask the digital truth.

It would be great to see students use this method of "storytelling via screencasted Google search queries" to tell other stories. What story would you tell? If your Google history could talk, what stories would IT tell?
