Facebook, Twitter comes to your TV set: Xbox announced at E3 today that it has implemented Facebook Connect, allowing users to access Facebook on their TV sets and link it to their Xbox avatars.  So, for example, if you just scored a hole-in-one on Tiger Woods, you can share the experience with your Facebook friends.  There’s also an on-screen Twitter client.  And perhaps most interesting, Xbox will allow you to watch movies with your  friends in an interactive, social setting.  “We are always asking ourselves how to make the TV more social,” said Xbox VP John Schappert.
