PBS | I, Cringely . January 5, 2006 - A Commercial Runs Through It

PBS | I, Cringely . January 5, 2006 - A Commercial Runs Through It: "If I'm right, Google's current business will have been nothing more than a great test-bed for what will turn out to be their real business, which will be IP-TV ads. Program choice is just the Trojan horse that will be used to sell this to viewers; the essence of the IP-TV buildout is the fully domesticated consumer.
Far scarier, of course, is that Google will be handling all political advertising, and will eventually be helping networks customize their news offerings, too."
