Twitter 360

On November 17, Xbox 360 gamers everywhere will be able to tweet from their Xbox. Yes, the service we are all addicted to is now coming to the Xbox and will be available to all Xbox gamers not just those in the preview program.

Major Nelson just released the information in his blog that the next update will contain Facebook, Twitter, Last.fm and Zune video and will be available to all Xbox LIVE members launch Nov. 17.

I’ve tried Facebook and Twitter while participating in the preview and honestly didn’t care for it. I think Last.fm and Zune video may be the most useful to gamers. If you are going to use Facebook and Twitter, you may want to invest in a chat pad.

UPDATE: We have some new information about the update.
Zune video will offer instant HD in 1080p and 5.1 channel surround sound. Last.fm includes “Gamer Stations”. Wonder how we can get on that.

“From the launch of Xbox LIVE nearly seven years ago, to milestones like Video Marketplace, Netflix and the New Xbox Experience, we’ve continued working toward our vision of connected entertainment for everyone,” continued Whitten. “I’m proud to say that next week marks another great stride in fulfilling that promise, and we’re already imagining what the future has in store.”

News & More is also debuting with the update. It will be a full media portal taking over the Inside Xbox channel.

On the 17, log onto Xbox Live and the update will start. Silver members can enjoy the latest Gold features for free starting November 20 until November 23.
