After some delay, Sony Computer Entertainment has released Life with PlayStation for Playstation3 (PS3) worldwide. This feature provides web-based content organized into channels that can be browsed by time and location.

Life with PlayStation is a new lifestyle service that offers users a new visual and interactive way to use their PS3 to access news and information from around the world. The channel delivers worldwide news and information around two themes: "place" and "time" on a world map interface.

Some of the live content includes: cloud imagery, along with weather information, news headlines, and live camera images of nearly 60 cities around the globe. PS3 users can join Life with PlayStation by clicking the Folding@home icon in the Network column of the XMB (XrossMediaBar).

With the latest update, Folding@home will support more advanced simulation of protein fold, and will also support PS3's unique Folding@home ranking system, which enables users to see where they stand among the worldwide contributors based on their level of contribution.
