POPE TO HAVE OWN GOOGLE CHANNEL WITH VIDEO


VATICAN CITY—The Vatican says Pope Benedict XVI is getting his own channel on Google.
It says the Vatican TV Center and Vatican Radio are collaborating with Google on the project.
The Vatican's press office said Saturday that texts and video of the pope's speeches as well as news about the pontiff would be posted directly onto the channel.
It says more information will be given next week.
The Vatican began using its Web site widely to publish teachings and pronouncements under the late Pope John Paul II.
