New Google Nexus 7 ad shows what to do with an open playground

The Google Nexus 7

Google keeps telling us that "the playground is open" and we can see exactly what they mean with the newest commercial for the Google Nexus 7 tablet. Take a bunch of kids who have seen the movie "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou" with an appreciation for the ocean, add the Google Nexus 7 and a germ of an idea, and the result is, well, you're better off checking it out yourself.

We're not really sure that the ad is going to make someone desire the Google Nexus 7 any more than before viewing it, but it does show how handy the tablet can be in putting together a project. And now that the pricing has been revised so that $199.99 buys you 16GB and $249 will get you 32GB, just about everybody can have one

If you want to see what a little imagination, elbow grease and a Google Nexus 7 can do, click on the video below.
