Google TV Coming to the UK in 6 Months
An “internet TV” service that allows people to switch between television and the web on the same set is to be launched in the UK by Google.
The news should officially be announced Friday by Google’s Eric Schmidt who is giving a lecture at the Edinburgh Television Festival.
Google TV hasn’t been very successful so far, according to Logitech‘s Q4 2011 fiscal year earnings. The company was one of Google’s partners for the service, but its sales of Google TV-related products fell short of expectations.
Google’s expansion of the service to the UK, however, shows that the company is far from giving up on this project.
According to the company, Google TV will allow people to search all of the content on the TV and the internet by using a single click.
The service will also allow viewers to switch between the TV and the internet on their main screen without having to adjust any cables.
