User Experience Lead Sought for Google TV, but Where Are the Apps?
Google is searching for a User Experience Lead to head up work on third-party integration with Google TV. The position would directly relate to the apps and web services designed for Google’s smart TV platform, items lacking from the Google TV we know today. At its launch we were greeted with a collection of Google TV-specific web portals, though few new ones have popped up since. We have been promised the Android Market sometime by the end of 2011, though any definitive timeframe is loose to say the least. Could this new job opening hint that the Android Market could launch soon?
Insiders are saying the upcoming Android Ice Cream release will focus on streamlining the source code between Google’s various Android projects, making updates for Google TV, tablets, and smartphones more timely. We expect to hear a lot about this at Google I/O, which might not be a bad time to expect some Google TV news regarding apps. We won’t hold our breath just yet.
