Now-a-days, internet means Google, and Google means internet. So, Google TV means, Internet TV.
Google has thought, to be involved in developing a device through which internet can be used on television sets. For this it has joined hands with Companies like Sony and Intel. In the process of bringing internet closer, Google is trying to produce a set top box which can be attached to the television sets so that it is possible to search the internet, watch you tube videos, play and download online games and use social networking sites on television sets. Logitech, another technology products company is thought to be taking part in it by producing a small keyboard and a remote control for this device. With this device users can not only watch television programs but also surf internet. Earlier, Apple was involved in the production of technology or device which enables users to download television shows and movies. This new device reportedly has Intel Atom chips and Android OS, open source operating system from Google. It has also done the testing of this device with the help of Dish Network, a pioneer in providing cable network for television sets. It may be released world wide or may be confined to US only.
