Break Me Off a Piece of that Android
Google announced a licensing agreement with Nestlé for the next Android. Lovingly referenced as the future of confectionery, the next version of the Android system to come from the search engine powerhouse has been named Kit Kat. It follows in the company’s tradition of naming the operating system after sweets including cupcake, donut, and jelly bean.
The use of the name is the result of a series of licensing agreements between the major confectionery companies, i.e. licensing of Kit Kat, manufactured by Nestlé around the world, is controlled by Hersey’s in the U.S. For both Google and Nestlé, it will boost exposure for their respective products. The cross-promotional contest will place Nexus 7 vouchers and Google Play credit in participating Kit Kat bars and will include an Android made of out Kit Kats in the new system.
