Today is a day for pomp and circumstance, so let’s take the time to remember past Presidents of these great United States. For example, Martin Van Buren. Don’t remember him? No one really does, except for his awesome sideburns. Google Search does though and shows off Google’s Knowledge Graph in this short, but cute commercial.

To show off the business-readiness (SAFE) of the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2, Samsung has released a new TV spot that features a fictional mobile gaming company whose employees are stuck in a world of Blackberries as business phones. Well, Blackberries as business phones and iPhones as their “home” phones. As one would expect, Samsung highlights the powerful business sharing tools, levels of encryption, and multi-tasking abilities of their current lineup, while also taking jabs at the guy in the sportcoat who thinks a Blackberry means “business.”

Oh, the game they are creating is called “Unicorn Apocalypse.” Who doesn’t love unicorns? 

When this Nexus 7 “Aquarium” commercial was first posted by Google, it was pulled or set to private before most of us had a chance to watch it. Most assumed the pulling had to do with timing since Hurricane Sandy had hit the east coast and the image of an aquarium and people under water on the top of a New York City building was probably in poor taste.

But now that it’s 2013, the commercial is back! It’s also reminding you that there is a T-Mobile version of the tablet as well.

According to this latest Samsung Galaxy Note 2 ad, the oversized phone is great for multi-tasking while you work on quarterly earnings reports. It’s also an amazing way for co-workers to slack off and then take credit for hard work you just put in. Thankfully, those slackers never win, at least not in this fantasy world.

Verizon and HTC continue to upgrade “yourself” in this latest commercial for the DROID DNA. In it, they decide to finally touch on the phone’s most important selling feature, the 1080p display, something they failed to do in the opening spot.

Can someone explain to me how a man sitting in a futuristic laboratory chair with a phone plugged into his chest would make anyone want to buy said phone?

Clever Galaxy Note 2 holiday spot from Samsung.

Remember the Galaxy S3 personal sex tape sharing video of Samsung’s that went viral? They are trying to recreate that magic by swapping out the normal family with Santa, Mrs. Claus, and some creepy little elves. This version doesn’t quite pull it off like the original, but still, worth a giggle.
