Google TV
Published November 14th, 2005
Google is rumored to start broadcasting television programmes over the internet.
The search engine has signed up an American channel to provide programmes for Google TV and is in talks with the BBC to broadcast its shows as well.
The search engine hopes to build up a massive online database of programmes that can be searched and watched from any computer, with users able to search for episodes of any show from broadcasters who sign up to the service.
It will also let British viewers watch hit television shows from America months before they are broadcast in this country.
Rivals, including Yahoo! and Microsoft are also thought to be developing similar services, and experts predict a major battle for the internet TV market.
