"This can be a truly historical meeting from the established also the new media," states Les Moonves, the CBS head, regarding his network's recent video joint venture with Google. So far Um, no, Les. Is only an actually crap internet site.
If, like us, you expected the new and superior Google Video Service to compete something such as Apple's iTunes shop, then do yourself a favor and do not visit the Google look for some months. Google has completed nothing to rejoice its special access for shows like CSI, Star Trek and Survivor. Instead, the organization has covered CBS's shows under a dismal interface wraps in the shamble of the delivery mechanism.
Main of Google's private, best content from a similar to of the NBA, CBS as well as the Charlie Rose show is cached in a primal pulldown menu. That may possibly not be so poor were it not for that thin, hopeless pulldowns.
Take CSI, for example. In the event you underscore it, only single show appears during the time of script - an episode known as "Werewolves." still MacGyver gets five episodes.
You will find an enormous two sheets of basketball games also two extra pages of episodes of Brady Bunch - not too the last is really a big loss.
Incidentally, should you do an episode search for "God," the final entrance is an conference with WSJ hack Walt Mossberg. So, it is pretty clear how the Google Video search has been infected through the same weblog noise since the Google Search engine.
