Google TV Free Invitation - Fake or Not?

SHARE:

Adjust text size:


Google is a company that owns a huge number of solutions, including calendar, mail solution, instant messenger client, videos and many other attracting services. Because the search giant's products are more and more popular, Google is now aiming to expand one of the most attracting applications provided by the company, AdSense that is an advertising platform that helps you earn money by placing ads on your website.

Because the company announced that Google intends to expand its services into the offline area, its employees started multiple campaigns to advertise
on newspapers, shops and even on the street. The advertising tests were very successful, so Google announced last week that the company is planning a video advertising service and will select some of the AdSense publishers to be included in the session.

Google currently owns YouTube and Video, two of the most known video services on the entire internet that allow you to publish, share and comment movies with other members of the community. That's why the search giant decided to design Google TV, an innovative service that will help you view your favorite TV programs directly from the internet.

Today, YouTube published a video that displays a presentation of the Google TV in action, showing you an interesting tip on how you can obtain a free invitation to the service. Although many users tried the trick, they reported that it is a fake because the domain presented in the video is unavailable and the tip is quite exaggerated.

'A lot of people were asking if the video below, that shows a new Google service called Google TV, is real or not. I'm sorry to disappoint those who still sign out and sign in to Gmail repeatedly, hoping to get an invitation to Google TV, a new way of watching TV programs and get recommendations from Google," Ionut Alex, a Google blogger, said in a blog post.

I tried the trick mentioned in the video a few times so I can sustain that this is a fake and I decided to avoid publishing details about it because it's useless to try.
