Cool press for Google TV Ads

In the wake of the Google TV announcement, Fortune had a cool article about Google TV Ads — Google TV = cool. But Google TV Ads = $$$.

TV Ads is even possible because television isn’t so old media anymore. The technology is there to let Google do what it does best: process data. Through information provided by set-top boxes from its partner Dish Network, Google lets TV advertisers target specific channels and shows, and identifies not only how many people saw their ads, but also the demographics of the audience.

And if you missed this a few months ago. Slate did a great video overview.  Its always fun to see stuff you work on in the press!

Was recently horrified to learn that I haven’t updated this blog in a while.  I guess, I’ve been busy.

In the meantime, here are some photos.

Was in Las Vegas for the National Association of Broadcasters conference.  Productive meetings, cool demos and (of course) Vegas. Discovered that photos from the Nexus One camera aren’t too shabby.

Nothing like NYC in the spring. Here’s an odd angle of a fire escape in SoHo. And people say I’m not artistic…
