A television system for providing standard television programming and
Internet browsing includes a television set for viewing digital and/or
analog programming and includes a memory storage device and an integral
embedded web browser for displaying data received from an Internet
portal. The data is in the form of URLs and web pages that are
synchronized with selected TV programming and/or advertising. A remote
control selectively displays URLs and/or their associated web pages
stored in memory by the Internet portal. In one aspect of the invention,
TV programming can be displayed simultaneously on the screen with related
web pages and URLs.
