In preparation for the upcoming Xbox 360 dashboard update, Microsoft has announced that theyâll be updating the website Xbox.com over the coming days to implement some of the dashboardâs new features before it launches on consoles later this winter.

The best new feature is the game âbeaconsâ that will soon be available to all Xbox 360 users. When a player wants to find friends to play with online, itâs not a matter of dropping a digital beacon that everyone can see suggesting a time and a place to play. Youâll be able to go to separate pages for any of your games, and see which of your friends have set becons for those.
As new features go, I think Beacons sound really coolâitâs always been difficult to pick times and dates to meet up with friends online, and I anticipate using that feature quite a bit. Weâll see how they work once the update is live.
