Here in India, Google has run a full-page print ad recently.

I noticed that their print ad drops the http:// from the URL just like the browser itself.

Google ran an ad during the Super Bowl this year.

That was a very good ad. On top of being well-produced and sweet, it taught people how to use the auto-suggest feature.

You make a good point, I consume all my television via streaming services, too. It's possible that the adverts are different for that compared to broadcast TV. A cursory web search for Chrome TV ads does appear to confirm they're broadcasting them though.

they ran a massive campaign in the parisian subway a couple of months ago

And in the London tube over Christmas. Chrome marketing is pretty awesome.
