5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Instead, it seems Microsoft will add additional channels to Xbox Live, reformatting the content for the so-called 'lean back' view associated with consoles. "Before Christmas, Xbox 360 users will have access to high definition movies-on-demand, Facebook, Twitter and a host of other features through our console," said David McLean, head of Microsoft Entertainment. Those "other features" may include the Last.fm online music service and content from TV companies. "This will give families even greater freedom to share, socialise and interact online, as some of the world's largest social networks move from the PC to the TV, and into the heart of the family living space," added McLean. The Xbox owners we contacted were underwhelmed by the news, so please post a comment if you can see the advantages of Facebook and Twitter on your console. |
