Google Announces Google TV at Google I/O Developer Event
Google's I/O Developer Event showcases a lot of different projects Google has been working on each year either by itself or with partners and developers. Short for "Innovation in the Open," past announcements include the development of web applications such as Google Chrome, Google Wave, and different versions of the Android operating system.
This year, Google has announced partnerships with Sony, Logitech, Intel, DISH Network, and Best Buy to unveil Google TV. Using set top boxes made by Logitech or Sony and television service from DISH Network, it will be a system that integrates both television and the internet, allowing you to seamlessly merge your online and offline viewing to your television screen. What's more, it will allow unlimited use of the internet to do whatever you would do if you were on a computer. In a nutshell, it adds internet functionality to your traditional TV setup, with lots of added features that cater to online video-watching.
And, in typical Google fashion, they have made a video that uses cute drawings to explain a more complex topic. Check it out below.
