From CNET: Google already makes the software that powers some televisions. Now it wants to make some of the content that shows up on TV.
The search giant is reportedly developing a TV show based on Ingress, a game created by Google's Niantic Labs gaming studio, according to The Information.
Ingress is a game that involves players going to various real world landmarks -- like a public sculpture or a sign -- and "capturing" it for their team by using various commands on their smartphones.
The game has been downloaded more than 5 million times for devices that run Google's Android operating system. It debuted last year for Apple's iPhone. There is a major social component to the game, with players holding meet ups to play. (There's one in Pasadena, Calif., on Saturday.)
