saint Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Cable provider Knology has signed an agreement with Backchannelmedia (BCM) to test BCM's "Clickable TV service" for viewers in Montgomery, Alabama. Clickable TV allows viewers to "bookmark" TV programming and ads that they're interested in. Viewers see small icons at the bottom of their screen during these "clickable moments," and can click a button on their remote control to send related content to their email or a Web portal. Advertisers pay a premium for those clicks. A handful of stations, including ones owned by Gray and LIN, have already launched Backchannelmedia tests with select viewers. http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/438998-Knology_Backchannelmedia_To_Test_Clickable_TV.php Relaxing Entertainment For The World - - www.ScenicRadio.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickolasM. Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 This is not exactly new, Its a improvement off of Time Warner Cable's remotes, All they have done is added the part to allow you to 'write' to them via their emails. Instead of walking across the room to the computer, opening MS Outlook typing their email address.... etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
