Yahoo! Connected TV brings the best of the Web right into your living room. Connected TV integrates Yahoo!‘s most popular services with the latest in big-screen home entertainment. So, there’s no more crowding around a laptop to share family photos. And news, traffic, and weather updates are just a click of the remote away. Yahoo is working with partners like AT&T, Sony, Apple, TiVo, and Intel to bring the best possible Internet and entertainment experience to millions of homes across the United States and around the world.

TV Widgets give you the best of the Internet in perfect harmony with the simplicity and reliability of your television. They’re as rich, varied, and useful as your favorite sites on the Web, reinterpreted for TV. Check out behind-the-scene interviews from popular TV shows, read the blogs on your favorite actors, or catch up on missed episodes. No complexity, no keyboard or mouse. Just lean back and stay connected. Enjoy Internet content while watching your favorite TV programs.

Interact with content and services that complement your TV viewing with TV Widgets. Press one button on your remote to bring up the TV Widget Dock, select a TV Widget, and view content, designed for your TV screen. Track your favorite sports team, watch financial stocks, share photos with friends and family, go shopping, play games, view movies or web videos while you watch your favorite show.

Personalize your viewing experience with TV Widgets from popular online media and Internet services. Select your favorite TV Widget, like eBay, MySpace, or CBS Entertainment, from the Widget Gallery, create a “Snippet,” and save it in the Widget Dock—for quick access to the content you want. By pressing your remote, you can view a friend’s new status on MySpace, purchase an item on eBay, or see the latest episode of your favorite CBS TV show.
