More and more services are integrating with Facebook to make it easy for you to connect with friends wherever you are — including websites like Digg, devices like the iPhone and desktop applications like iPhoto.

The Xbox Facebook integration allows you to take part in some of the most popular activities on Facebook directly from your living room on your television. With Facebook for Xbox, you can update your status, browse updates from your friends and view photos on the big screen. You also can link your Facebook profile to your Xbox Gamertag to find your Facebook friends and connect with them on Xbox Live. It's never been easier to discover friends you never even knew played Xbox.

Keep in mind that Xbox will respect the privacy you set on Facebook, so you can control who sees your activity. The new Facebook for Xbox can be added to your Xbox 360 through a system update now.

As social gaming continues to grow, we look forward to people playing games with their friends on consoles, mobile phones, the Web and their desktops.
