Microsoft’s made another step forward in turning the Xbox 360 into a true media hub, adding Last.fm, Facebook and Twitter access to the console. You’re about to stay a lot more glued to your sofa!
Announced today at E3, Microsoft’s updating the Xbox 360’s dashboard to include Last.fm (free to all Xbox Live Gold subscribers), as well as updates from Facebook and Twitter.
As you’d expect, it’ll let you enjoy music in the living room streamed directly from the web, as well as showing your Xbox Live and Facebook friends all at once.
A new “Friend Linker” feature will let you combine your buddies from the two social networks, and invite them to play games with you.
Not content with all that? How about Twitter too? Microsoft’s building in Twitter support for the Xbox, so you can post tweets and see updates live on your TV.
All three new features will hit the Xbox 360 this autumn.
