Yahoo Courts Second Screen App Developers With New Tools To Connect Phones And TV

Launched in 2009, Yahoo's Connected TV was one of the first platforms to introduce an open app development kit (ADK) for Internet-capable TVs. Now it's making those apps even more powerful, by allowing developers to build apps that integrate TV and mobile capabilities. At a meeting with developers Thursday evening, the Yahoo Connected TV team is rolling out the newest version of its ADK, in addition to open source availability of its device communication library for Android devices on GitHub.
