Microsoft has announced that the Xbox 360 live experience will soon include a capability to connect to facebook and twitter through new social networking facilities that will be part of dashboard. Sources indicate the new services will allow users to link Xbox Live friends with their Facebook profiles, share photos ad status updates and snapshot game moments to share on Facebook. Avatars links are given and will be part of all these new Xbox Live friends features.
It's all part of the plans to expand the Xbox live experience in the realm of social networking, online parties, and social gaming. The strong affinity between facebook and Microsoft at the corporate level is surely an enabler to allow this to happen. Microsoft has invested wisely.
The latest Dashboard update does not include these updates, but begins to hint that they will be coming soon; maybe very soon. Early adopters may be given a change to preview the update in advance by participating in a Microsoft Beta release.
