Watch Youtube on the television Now - ChromeCast

We'll see YouTube on the Internet. Chromecast is a digital media player developed by Google. The device, a 2.83-inch (72 mm) HDMI dongle, plays audio/video content on a high-definition television by directly streaming it via Wi-Fi from the Internet or a local network.

Users select the media to play using Chromecast-enabled mobile apps and Web apps, or through a beta feature called "tab casting" that can mirror most content from the web browser Google Chrome running on their personal computer.

The device was announced on July 24, 2013, and made available for purchase on the same day in the United States for US$35, along with a limited-time promotion for three free months of Netflix.It is cheaper than available streaming devices such as Roku, Apple TV, etc.


       A special thing is this device can be used with other Laptop, Mac devices, not only television.
  Measuring 2.83 inches (72 mm), Chromecast plugs into a television's HDMI port, while the power is supplied by connecting the device's micro-USB port to an external power supply or a USB port. The device connects to the Internet through a Wi-Fi connection to the user's home network. Chromecast works in two ways, both of which stream content to a television. 

  • The first employs mobile apps and Web apps. 
  • The second, called "tab casting", can mirror almost any content displayed by the web browser Google Chrome running on a personal computer.
               The primary method of playing media on the device is through Chromecast-enabled mobile apps and Web apps, which control program selection, playback, and volume. The media is streamed by the Chromecast within a local version of the Chrome browser, thus freeing the controlling device for other tasks, such as answering a call or using another application, without disrupting playback. Both Android and iOS.

Google is working on 10 Gigabit Speed

Currently, Google is offering 1 GB per second to its customer through 'Fiber' service in Kansas city area. Google is working on to offer 10 times faster than what it delivers to its customer now. If this comes to real, a drastic change will happen in internet usage. Patrick Pichette, chief financial officer of the tech giant, said it could take as long as 10 years to create the technology, but Google hopes to deliver it as early as three years from now. Along with Google some more companies joint to make it deliver as soon as possible. Last year, Britain scientists proved that data can be transferred through light. They named this technology as 'Lifi'. A famous american company successfully completed its 10GB data transfer per second. By using this technology it transferred a 2.3 GB movie within 4 seconds. We can expect this technology by Google, because it is working on it very closely.
