ADVERTISEMENTS
In a bid to make India’s rural masses Internet savvy, Google launched on Tuesday an “Internet bus” that will roll into 15 towns in the state of Tamil Nadu over a period of one and half months. The bus has Internet connectivity using satellite, a spokeswoman for Google India said. At stops, the bus will provide local people with content in English and the local language Tamil, which will give them an understanding of how the Internet can be used to meet their needs, Google said.
People will be shown videos of how a variety of people including grandparents, small entrepreneurs, and students are already using the Internet to their benefit, it added.
