Google gadget turns PC into media server

Stephen Shankland  |  Jun 30, 2008
Google has released a software module that can turn Windows PCs into devices that stream media files to other devices.

The Google Media Server is a gadget that works on the Google Desktop software. It sends the data to other devices over a Universal Plug-and-Play connection such as a Sony PlayStation 3, according to the Google Desktop blog.

With it, people can play videos and music and view photos on a PC. In addition, it can connect to Web sites including Google's YouTube for video and Google's Picasa for photos.
