Google to Transform Television Advertising?

Posted by Zonk on 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."

    Just read the comments below. Everyone loves google, even with their pee-pee. In fact, you almost need to wear semen guards while reading this thread to block all the spontaneous emissions flying around over the idea.

    Robert X Cringely is probably also the kind of person that thinks Bush and The Royal Family are lizard aliens?
