Read to go Social!??!

Ever heard of a little thing called Facebook? How about Twitter? Maybe a little Last. FM? Ok, maybe I lost you on the last one, but next month will make your Xbox 360 very, very social.
This is the first time that the Xbox 360 is blending hardcore gaming and social networking. Gaming and social networking being two complete different things, Microsoft feels confident that the Xbox 360 will break the walls of social networking and gaming to make the 360 unite over 200 million people together from one white/black box.
If you are all about the social movement, then you’ll love your 360 that much more next month. Facebook and Twitter’s add on (well, beta anyways)for the 360 will allow you to add friends through the application, check your messages, leave messages, post in-game pictures, and lots more. The first game that will include this technology will be “Tiger Wood’s PGA Tour.
"Last. FM"... something you might have never heard of, or a big fan of it. Regardless of your knowledge-base on this internet radio, you’ll learn more about it later next month. They will offer thousands of independent artists and bands to your Xbox 360, so instead of listening to a few bands you might have on the HD (I know there are people out there who put music on their HD). You will be able to create your own personal playlists, and have access to fresh, and new music to game with. Release date isn't solid, but some say it's going to released on November 17, 2009.
