Google is getting into the non-bootleg video kick by selling video of some sort, possibly from CBS or the NBA, using its new Google Video service. No further info just yet, but that’s what they seem to have up their sleeve this week instead of some amazing little lump of hardware nobody wants. They’re also giving away the Google Pack:
Google-tweaked version of Firefox, Adobe Acrobat Reader, antivirus software from Symantec, AdAware, Trillian, and Google’s own offerings, including Google Desktop Search, Picasa, Google Earth, Google Talk, and all of the toolbar action you can shake a stick at. Oh, and I left out one other item: the RealPlayer.
