Facebook app very popular on Xbox 360DVDBack23 @ Nov 25, 2009 18:06 | 7 comments
At the same time, Twitter, Zune Video and Last.fm were integrated to the console and Microsoft says 500,000 Last.fm accounts were created in just the first day.
Adds Microsoft spokesperson David Dennis: There have also been "tweets from nearly every market where we have Xbox Live."
Says Microsoft exec Neil Thompson: "It's just about giving people choice and giving them a slightly different experience. The Facebook and Twitter applications are bespoke to the service, they do have Xbox Live unique features, such as being able to see which Xbox Live friends are online, et cetera. And over time I'm sure that will evolve as well." |

I'm afraid i have nothing positive to say about such mindless timewasting brain-tissue numbing sites ![]() Main PC ~ Intel C2Q Q6600 (G0 Stepping)/Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3/2GB Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500/Zalman CNPS9700/Antec 900/Corsair HX 620W Network ~ DD-WRT ~ 2node WDS/WPA ~ Buffalo WHR-G54S. 4node WPA2/AES ~ WRT54GS v6 (inc.

Comment by: BaconBIt (Dec 02, 2009 04:54) I was pretty disappointed with this so called Facebook app. From what I can see, you can only be logged in while you have the Facebook screen open. I would be more impressed if it was streamlined into the system. |
