Ottawa, Aug 30 (IBNS): Google has decided to venture into the household by providing services through a range of appliances, media reports said.

The Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL.O 0.96%) unit said on Wednesday that its voice based chat service became compatible with a range of household appliances like refrigerators, vacuum and many others.
