Last week, Microsoft launched its new "Meet Your Match" campaign for Windows Phone 8. It's a new variation on the previous "Smoked by Windows Phone" campaign, where Microsoft evangelist Ben Rudolph tries to show random people on the street that Windows Phone 8 devices are better than completing iOS and Android smartphones.
Today, even more videos from the Meet Your Match publicity push have been posted on the Windows Phone YouTube channel. In one clip, Rudolph shows a couple who are about to get married that his HTC Windows Phone 8 can find a restaurant faster than the couple's Android smartphone.
In the second clip, Rudolph shows a number of different people how using the Live Tiles in Windows Phone 8 can be a better way to keep track of the people that are most important in their lives by pinning those people's updates to the Windows Phone 8 Start screen. As he usually does, Rudolph gives all of the people he talks to a free Windows Phone 8 device just for playing along.
The official Windows Phone blog notes that since the Meet Your Match campaign started last week, it has generated a total of 300,000 views on YouTube. There's also a new dedicated Meet Your Match page on the Windows Phone site.
