‘Digg song girl’ wins Super Bowl ad contest

Remember the “Digg song girl” we wrote about in December? Kina Granis came up with a clever song about Digg - which then became a little phenomenon among diggers. Her website - twoweeksfokina.com - asked users to participate in a Doritos/MySpace contest - with the top voter-getter getting a record deal and a music video aired during today’s game.

Kina won.

Open thread for all things Super Bowl

So, what do you think of the Super Bowl pregame show, the game coverage, the halftime show, the web integration and most of all… the commercials? Leave your impressions in comments below and we’ll surface a few in our coverage after the game.

Writes Chip: “It will be the highest-rated SB, dontcha think? Even higher than those great games of the 70s and 80s.”

Writes Tim: “Most of the ads were.. average, mediocre, take your pick. There was one that made me laugh.. but I can’t remember it so it wasn’t that effective, was it?”

Writes Mel: “While i think tom petty is a fine performer, i always get a kick out of how the producers of the half time show load up a bunch of screaming teens and 20-somethings in front of the stage…. the youngsters seem to be going crazy for petty. i bet most have no idea of the tunes he was playing.”

Writes Sparkles: “We tried going to the screaming stain web site right after the commercial. it didn’t work. doh!”

Writes Steve: “A four hour pregame is way too long. on the positive side - Jordan Sparks may have sung one of the best renditions on the national anthem i’ve ever heard.”
