I think I’m addicted to those Orbitz ads. You know, the ones done in Flash where you hit the golf ball, or spike the volleyball, or do a bellyflop. I play the volleyball one for a few minutes everytime it pops up (I love knocking the blonde pretty-boy over), and I scored a hole-in-one on the golf ad the other day.
In an attempt to make this remotely newsworthy instead of just a testament to my dwindling attention span, here’s a news story about them.
Also, here’s a list of, and links to, all the games.
Offline Brands Turning to "Advergaming": You know all those little Flash-based games we play that advertise something or other? Like, the Orbitz ad games, for instance? They have a name: advergaming. Already, offline brands including Jack Daniels, Quaker Mills and Nabisco have all experimented with online, brand-integrated games, and…
There are two more I played this weekend. The on where you have to get the bellhop across the street was pretty lame — a poor version of "Frogger." However, the blimp ad, where you have to navigate the blimp around buildings and clouds, was excellent. I got to Level 3.
http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~pyang/flash/miniputt.swf Not an Orbitz ad, but similarly addictive, and a great time-waster. I got the link in an e-mail from a friend over a year ago, and it's still there. My best score is 29.
I've got a list of all the popup games on my site in case you're bored and want to play them all.
Incidentally, this page is -- by far -- the most popular page on this site. It's number one on Google for "orbitz ads."
what happened to mini putt?
thanks for ruining my life.

How did anybody ever get to those levels of 8000+, I need some help to get to those levels any suggestions? Other than wasting another work day?
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I just played for 30 minutes until I got a hole-in-one on all 3 holes.
I love the new blimp game, I am at work and have been playing it for 2 1/2 hours straight. Glad my boss isn't here.
I am a big loser and love to play orbitz games. I am not good at any of them but I enjoy waisting my time playing them. Leave me alone and let me get back to my gluttony and gaming!
I found this looking for th pop up games. I though I was the only dumbass that wastes his day plaing this stuff...guess not
How'd you get a hole-in-one on the last hole?? HELP PLEASE!! LOL
i dont know where the links are (for the orbitz ads) i clicked on the link but i cant find them....btw the games are sooooo much fun
Your links don't work. damn it
damnit get the orbitz ad links working I NEED MY ORBITZ GAMES PUUUUTTTINNNGGGG WHEERRREEEE AARREEE YYOOOUUUU
I dont know if you guys are serious about this whole thing, and if you are, get a job or something. They are just pop up ads. Oh, by the way, why aren't we using correct grammer in this? Doesn't it take longer to make AlL oF YoUr LeTtErs LoOk LiKe ThIs? And it really doens't look good at all. Poor Webster is turning over in his grave because of you. And please use either a period, exclamation point, or question mark after each sentence. It makes things much easier to read.
