Google makes its way television: Google TV

Google did not want to miss the opportunity to position themselves almost the only container that was not present and announced Google TV.

If we have to define Google TV in a couple of words we can speak of Boxee style service combined with an adapter for the Chrome browser TV. But the reality is much more, and Google TV introduces interesting ideas to add value to the TV until he had never been. The culprit of this is Google but not Internet.


Google TV, a powerful way to access content

To avoid the usual chaos of thousands of channels and sources have turned to their most powerful weapon: the searches. Thus, Google provides search TV and web surfing while watching television content via PiP, real-time data via the Internet.

Google TV highlights what many have assumed: the content, but no matter where the content. And now Google helps us to look, what succeeds in bringing Internet content to the end where we were going to consume TV. And so interesting extras such as subtitles for all the contents of the hands of Google, or Youtube optimized for viewing on televisions.

For example we can use voice search on the phone with Android to find content on the TV. Or even something more surprising: that we spend watching a video on the phone to the TV screen. Everything, of course, connected with our Google account.

When available Android Market store in Chrome, we can install applications from your computer. And will Google Android Market on TV, with many applications running on it. I already imagine a game on TV that you control with your mobile phone.
