Google to Transform Television Advertising?

Posted by Zonk on Friday January 6, 2006 @04:14AM from the no-less-plausible-than-anything-else dept.

Brad Zink writes "According to Robert X. Cringely, Google is poised to enter into the world of television advertising. This would usher in a new era for the venerable medium, creating a tidal wave of revenue for the networks, while solidifying Google's position in the advertising industry. Cringely develops this prediction based on his belief that Google is developing a network of data centers to be placed around the globe, which would be used to serve television commercials in addition to its current online content."

Even worse, I just had a pot of strong coffee. Warning to coffee addicts: stay away from posting on slashdot after an entire 12 cup pot of coffee :)
