Google already having considerable impact on the Internet and Mobile Phone Technology now people surprise to that it is looking to conquer another area in the market. According to a report from Wall Street Journal, Google has partnered with Dish TV Network, Previous efforts to access Internet programming on TV sets have failed to catch on, partly because they required consumers to purchase extra hardware. By working directly with an operator like Dish and its hardware, Google could avoid the such issues. Unlike earlier efforts, Google’s service isn’t just about accessing Web content. It is also a search service that is integrated with the operator’s programming.
The service will operate on set top boxes powered by the latest Google Android technology and will allow users to search through the TV content as well as video content from sites such as YouTube.
Accordingly to sources, the set top box is currently being tested by a very small number of company employees and it has not been confirmed as to whether it will actually come to fruition.
There is talk that Google has marketed the Android operating system to other TV service providers but so far it seems that Dish TV Network is the only one to have confirmed. As well as partnering for this service, there is an existing partnership between the two parties for the Google TV adverts. It is expected that the set-top box will also aim to enhance the performance of the Google TV adverts.
