Google Chrome Dear Sophie
THE AD FACTORY

Google's "Dear Sophie" Chrome ad, in which a father emails his daughter's life moments to her future self over the years. It portrays an email account as a lifelong keepsake.
Brought up ironically in threads about Google deleting inactive accounts and tightening storage policies, as a reminder that Google once encouraged this kind of long-term use.
