Google Partnering With Sony to Launch Google TV

by POPSUGAR Tech 0

If having Google in your office and on your phone wasn't enough, the web giant is now setting its sights on your living room. Google is partnering up with Sony to launch a web-based platform they're calling Google TV for you to surf the web and watch streaming TV right from your big screen.

Using the Android platform and a version of the Chrome browser, it is said that Sony will develop a line of TVs that integrates Google TV into the hardware, which will make surfing the web, and using social network apps like Twitter and Facebook as easy as flipping through channels. Google has already designed a prototype set-top box, but says the software is easy to build right into TVs, DVD, and Blu-Ray players as well.
