AT&T ad problem
Thanks, that worked. Unfortunately, I didn*t find the ad I was looking for. Maybe someone knows it it*s from about 1998 where a boy sends a girl a picture on his computer while she*s polishing her toenails, and she giggles at the end of the ad. Anyone remember that one?

I*m trying to understand this...when I do a regular search for AT&T ads (or even the super search) I only find ones from 2005 and 2004. But when I search Superbowl ads, I find much older AT&T ads. How can I just find EVERY AT&T ad that has been archived on this site?

Try this for a workaround - go to superseach and type "ATT" in the box (no ampersand or spaces) - under news stories and topics, select "telecom & dotcoms" and under categories, select "commercials". Hit "search"
When you get the returns page, scroll down to "stories and topics" - it won*t be perfect, for "att" shows up in several other words and phrases as well, but it should be mostly AT&T spots. This page will have the first 20 hits. To get more, click on "see next 20 from all 166 Results" link found above the first commercial jpeg preview. From there on out, the bottoms of the pages will have a "Next 20 results" allowing you to do deeper.
AT&T is a bit of a worst case scenario due to the brevity of the name and the ampersand, which doesn*t play nice with the search.
Hope that helps.
