Have you ever been under the iron grip of glossophobia? If you have ever needed to do a speech in a class or simply talk to a large gathering of people, then you might have experienced this. Glossophobia is the "fear of speaking in public" and it also happens to be the focal point for a new video commercial of the Nexus 7 from Google. In this heartwarming ad, a young boy finds inspiration and the ability to face this particular demon with the help of a Nexus 7.

pretty good commercial.

And he was able to Google search someone during a movie? Did I see that right? That's awesome if so.

Wow, being someone who is studying abroad away from my family, that reminder set by his mom hit deep for me. Well done Google.

This reminds of Jerry Seinfeld's stand up routine about public speaking. Peoples number one fear is public speaking, number two is death. This means that if you are at a funeral, you'd rather be the one in the casket as opposed to the one giving the eulogy.

The Play Movies app has had that feature for a while now, lol. When you pause, it detects what actors are on screen, what sound is being played (if any), etc. It's really cool
