The show clearly is a fan of borrowing elements from other entertainment programs, from the time-travel aspects of “Lost” to the high levels of torture even Jack Bauer couldn’t bear.

AP – Swine flu infections continue to wane, just as vaccine is becoming plentiful enough that some communities are allowing everyone to get it, not just those in priority groups.

We’ve been covering the impending social integrations with Facebook, Twitter, and last.fm on Xbox Live since Microsoft first announced social networking support would be coming to the console back at E3 this June.
If you’ve been waiting to check out social networking on your Xbox 360, today’s the day it’s rolling out to everyone (well, everyone except teens under 18, at least temporarily).
After installing the new Xbox 360 system update, you’ll find Facebook and Twitter in a new My Community channel on your dashboard. You can check out the last.fm integration under the Music Channel. If you don’t see the new options right away, sit tight for a few hours as various regions will be receiving the update in a staggered rollout.
Everything works smoothly in all fronts, much like we saw during the preview and early access rollout of the services. Although the Twitter client is fairly simple, it gets the job done and gives you access to post status updates, see updates from your followers, and also perform searches and see trending topics.
The Facebook integration features a notably excellent photo browsing interface, as well as a uniquely useful feature that lets you find out which of your Facebook friends are on Xbox Live that you might not already know about. Facebook has some more details about specific functionality on their blog.
Do you have the new social networking integrations live on your Xbox 360 yet? When you have a chance to check out the new features, let us know your impressions in the comments.

Eureka Earthquake Caught on Video [YOUTUBE VIDEO]
–
With video cameras and camera phones becoming nearly ubiquitous, perhaps we shouldn’t be surprised that the Eureka earthquake this afternoon was reportedly caught on tape by at least one person – and it’s likely more will be uploaded to YouTube over time.
That’s part of the change being brought about by social media: with the tools of content creation in everyone’s hands (video cameras in phones, Twitter apps, mobile blogging), we’re reaching a point at which everyone is a reporter.
As we mentioned previously, some of the first pics of the damage caused by the Eureka earthquake were posted to Twitter. Now, according to French-language news outlet @lesnews, we have an actual video of the event, taking place during the filming of a fairly ordinary scene. It was, of course, posted to YouTube.
Have you seen more YouTube videos of the Northern California earthquake? Let us know in the comments.
