Shocked? Wake-up! Its not dream. Now a days we are seeing Internet providers like TATA Photon etc. are providing mobile internet with Broadband connection. Well here is one more by Mr.Search Engine Google. Google is all set to release it Google TV by end of this may.
The first question which comes to everyone when they hear Google TV is what is it? Is it a TV like Sony, LG etc?
Wiki says,
“Google TV is a software platform for set-top boxes and HDTV based on Google Android operating system and co-developed by Google, Intel,Sony and Logitech.”
As anticipated, Google TV will have fewer user restrictions than current systems. It will have a web browser that will allow users to search through the Web and video content just similarly to desktops and mobile phones.
9 Applications on Google TV:
1. USA Today
As one of the first major news sources to launch an Android app, USA Today has a clean interface for delivering semi-custom news. Google says “Keep updated yourself with international news”.
2. WeatherBug
If it’s just the weather and driving info you need before you leave for work in the morning, WeatherBug will more than suffice. If you want information on weather and traffic conditions, the viewer can use this application.
3. Entertainment Television
Do not want to miss Gossips? Yes i agree that these Gossips will be fun sometimes. It is one of the Sony Television Channel embedded in Google TV.
4. Facebook
Well I seriously agree that we miss lot of fun on Facebook while watching TV and even vice versa is also true! Well here Google TV has both side by side. Google says “Watch and Chat”.
5. HULU Tv
Missed your Favorite TV show? Want to share music? Do it now while watching some other show!
6. Media player
Media player application may not need because Google TV itself possess a media player. But with advanced search features such as lyric search, Meridian’s app collection can leverage the perks Google TV will likely offer.
7. Rhapsody
Using your TV to listen to music is nothing new, but Rhapsody’s Android app has its own benefits. If you already have a Rhapsody subscription, accessing your saved music library and preferences is simple through Google TV.
8. Twitter
Google TV is mainly concentrating on the Social Networking sites as more than 80% of world’s population spend most of their time in Networking. As Twitter recently launched its own official Android app, is still focused on social networking.
9. DirecTV
With DirecTV all the search program will be easier. This application allows permisa to share some content, social media, and other services.
These are the top 9 Applications that Google TV is including. We will update more information this as and when we get some NEWS.

Google is positioning this as “TV meets Web, Web meets TV.”
Google TV features 802.11n Wi-Fi, 2 HDMI-out ports, USB ports and Dolby 5.1 surround sound. Video chat comes in high def at 720p. Remote control apps for your iPhone or Android phone are forthcoming.
It’s also likely to include the newish YouTube Store.
So I feel any user can use it Genite

Sounds like another reason to ditch the tv. Where is it going to end?
