Facebook and Twitter lands on Xbox 360 November 17th
Beta versions set for end of October
Social networking services Facebook and Twitter will be available to access through your Xbox 360 on November 17th according to the Xbox website.
Revealed via an advertisement on the UK version of the site, the deadly social networking duo looks set to be joined by Last FM and Skyplayer which are scheduled to arrive in ‘Autumn 2009’.
- Facebook, Twitter and Last FM Screenshots
The Xbox dashboard update will make the new services available to Xbox Live Gold members, and will incorporate new features to smooth over the transition from desktop to console.
Facebook will include ‘Friend Linker’ which will let you invite Facebook pals to play over Xbox Live, and let you save game screenshots which can be sent to your fellow Facebookers. On the Twitter front, you'll be able to display your Xbox avatar as you tweet.
Skyplayer which we reported was on its way to the Xbox, will also be available and will function much like the desktop version enabling you to access a library of movies and live sporting action, without the need to be a Sky subscriber.
Last FM will also enter the Xbox 360 fray, but according to the chaps over at Joystiq, who have managed to get an early look at it, you’ll not be able to do anything else on the console while listening to the internet radio station.
The beta services are likely to be available during the end of October, where you can make your own judgement on the new services.

The Free iPhone Guide
To get yourself a free iPhone, iPod Touch, or the latest Macbook Air all you have to do is follow the 3 easy steps:
Step 1 : Sign up for a free Gift
Sign up at the link below to get your free gift. We recommend this free gift site because it's been TRIED and TESTED to work.
http://Gifts.real-incentives.com/2992 (copy and paste into address bar)
You can choose other prizes like free Laptops from this site too! Make sure you use a real email address. Use your real details when you sign up so that the company knows where to send your gift! Remember that they have been proven legitimate, so will send you your free gift if you do everything legitimately!
Step 2 : Try an advertiser's offer
Basically all you need to do in this step is complete one of the offers, this is where the freebie site make their money, if you complete an offer then the freebie site will recieve commission for it. So if you complete Coral which will only cost you £5 to complete, the freebie site gets £25 from Coral. The two best offers are Lovefilm Free DVD rental (a no obligation free DVD trial) and Coral (bet £5 on a sport). I would reccommend you do Coral as it credits in an hour and is really simple to do, Lovefilm however can become complicated and takes up to 4 weeks to credit! You can also try one of the other offers, most are gambling offers. Don't skip this step! You must complete this step to get your free gift!
Step 3 : Refer some friends
This part is a lot easier than it seems, especially now with free gift sites getting so popular. There's lots of people online who want a free iPhone, Touch or macbook too, so start referring them! You only need to get a few signups before you'll be finished. You can ask your friends or your online buddies. I already got a free iPhone without even having to ask my friends for help - there's lots of people online who want a free iPhone like you! One of the easiest ways to get a referral is to do a favour for a friend and ask them to sign up in return. That way, you both can get a free gift!
Basic rules
Don't break these rules! This is the only reason that you won't get your free gift, so make sure you follow these rules!
- One account per household - don't use a public computer to sign up!
- Use real information - this is a proven legitimate site and they will not give out your information.
- Only complete each offer once! You cannot complete the same offer again, even for different freebies.
- Don't try to cheat the system. This site has been proven legitimate, and they will catch you if you try to cheat. If you do everything legitimately, by following this guide, you will get a free gift!
