Google TV - An Awesome Prank
Written by on January 28th, 2007 in Ajax News.
A heavily produced YouTube video from Mark Erickson at “Infinite Solutions” shows users how to get in on the super-secret beta of Google TV beta. It involves sending yourself an email and then logging in and out of Gmail multiple times until a tv icon appears in the Gmail logo. In the comments to the video, some users have tried logging in and out of Gmail hundreds of times without it working.
This is almost certainly a fake, as Google Blogoscoped reports. Erickson then posted a second video to prove the authenticity and saying that Google had increased the login requirements “substantially”. A+ for effort and originality. Both videos are below.
