Sony Computer Entertainment Europe announces the release of Life with PlayStation for PS3.
Life with PlayStation is a new lifestyle service that offers users a new visual and interactive way to use their PlayStation 3 to access news and information from around the world.
LIVE CHANNEL will be the first content to be released for Life with PlayStation, delivering worldwide news and information centering on the themes of place and time using a world map interface.
Some of the live content includes cloud imagery (provided by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Space Science and Engineering Center), along with weather information (provided by The Weather Channel), news headlines (provided by Google News™), and live camera images (partially provided by The Earth Television Network) of nearly 60 cities around the globe.
Through LIVE CHANNEL, PS3 users will be able to enjoy worldwide news and live information free of charge. In addition to LIVE CHANNEL, Life with PlayStation will continually deliver a wide variety of interactive content and channels to living rooms through network connected PS3 systems to enhance the world of entertainment made possible by PS3.
PS3 users can easily join Life with PlayStation by simply clicking the Folding@home icon under Network on the PS3 Home Menu (XMB) that will update to Life with PlayStation.
With the latest update, Folding@home will support more advanced simulation of protein fold, and will also support a unique Folding@home ranking system for PS3, which enables users to see where they stand among the worldwide contributors based on their level of contribution.
