When a big company sends around a controversial internal memo, it’s generally just a matter of time before the memo is leaked to the press. Maybe that’s why RealNetworks founder Rob Glaser decided to post his memo about layoffs on his Facebook page.

This “beat them to the punch” strategy makes Glaser look like a compassion, above-board guy who stands behind his decisions, good and bad. It also puts him squarely in the line of fire for those who don’t agree with his methods.

For Glaser, the outcome has been mostly positive. Overly positive, actually, with Facebook comments that sound sympathetic. Poor, Mr. Glaser, it’s tough to layoff workers, we feel bad for you. Really? This so could have gone the other way.

Google+ has been looking for a way to distinguish itself from the competition. They tried with their unique video chat system called Hangouts. They tried with a group photo upload option called Party Mode. And now they’re trying again with a new series of features designed to turn their site into your office conference room.

This time, I think they got it right.

Noting that more and more companies are using Google systems like Gmail, Google Docs, and Google Drive for work, they decided to run with the idea and make it official. They don’t have a snazzy new name for the overall project but Google+ at Work seems appropriate, so let’s run with that for the moment.

I admit it. I am jaded. I don’t laugh at the things that many people find funny because it never feels as funny to me as it does to them.

But this new Old Spice ad / campaign or whatever you want to call it made me laugh. Yeah, I literally LOL’d. Stick around for a minute after it’s over and don’t do anything but wait. You’ll see.

Just watch it and let us know if you laughed too.
