New & Old Media announce mobile developments

Posted in IPTV, Mobile, News on April 3rd, 2007. By Eduard F. Vinyamata.

There had been rumors that Google might soon launch a “Google phone”. Last week Engadget explained how the so called Google phones would in fact be LG phones with Google software, not a Google hardware/software solution. Google is to introduce mobile versions of tools such as Google Mail, Google Maps and Blogger.

Google is also developing through YouTube a mobile version of their video website. This will launch as soon as next May for European countries. As explained at GigaOm, the website is to feature a selection of videos (not the whole Youtube cataloge), and it’s the first step to new features and (hopefully all) contents to come. Traditional also announced new offerings last week with the BBC making shows available on mobiles or MSNBC launching their “Multimedia on Mobile” platform.
