Satellite broadcaster BSkyB said is to link up with Google to deploy the Internet search giant's suite of search, advertising and video functionality on its broadband service.
Sky said it would launch an online user-generated video content site, its own e-mail service and a search portal.
Revenue generated by click-throughs on sponsored advertising links will be shared between the two firms. Other financial terms of the agreements have not been disclosed.
The user generated video content site will be seen as a rival to YouTube, which Google recently bought for $1.65 billion.
BSkyB added that it was also looking at launching a product which would enable users to make calls over the Internet - similar to that offered by Skype.
Sky had problems with its fledgling on-demand film and sport download service in August. It was forced to shut down the service for three months after the software provided by Microsoft was cracked, enabling the digital protection to be stripped.
