The web is about to come to your television. It might be that your new TV has web applications built-in or maybe you’ll connect via a set-top box. Moreover, surfing the web and watching television via apps will soon be the normal coz Google has its method.
Google TV brings the search engine to the television; type the name of a programme and Google TV will find it for you. It also lets you create ‘playlists’ for your viewing that combine, for example, YouTube clips, on-demand films and TV catch-up services. It is launched in the US in October to halfhearted reviews. Critics said it was complex to use and flat due to technical problems. However, with Google’s Android operating system running things, expect to see occasional updates to improve the experience.
