Google Video

This new beta from Google offers some video treats, all played in Flash. I think is inline with googles ownership of Blogger and what is expected to take off shortly; vlogging, or video blogging.

At last we are beginning to see some real content for broadband beyond iTunes. With the launch of video iPods there has been a noticeable shift to get popular TV programmes online.

I wonder if it is too far fetched to imagine a time when TV will be broadcast online. As we see a divergence in PC and TV technologies in hardware such as Tivo or Sky Plus. Already I can download video and watch it via my XBox.

Recently we have seen Sky purchase an ISP in an attempt to move into the broadband market and the BBC beta an internet broadcasting scheme.

The biggest disadvantage of this would be the widening of the technological divide.
