Earlier today, the folks at Sony decided to provide both gamers and the press with a closer look at the PS4’s user interface via a photo gallery.
From the looks of these photos, I’d say the new interface looks like a much brighter and more organized version of the PS3’s interface…if it were crossed with a Facebook profile. Yup. The Sony reps weren’t kidding around when they mentioned the console’s heavy focus on sharing content, cause they want you to share everything, all of the time, ever.
As mentioned during the PS4 announcement event, the console will allow players to share all kinds of stuff with their friends and followers on not only their PS4 profile but also through various social media sites as well. Stuff such as the games they’re currently playing, gameplay footage they’ve recorded, and even any Ustream hosted livestreams they may feel like filming.
I know I’ve made a few jokes about this obsession with sharing but there’s a big market for this kind of thing right now and Sony’s smart to capitalize on it.
Besides, there’s plenty of talented people out there who create content for the Internet who might be able to get some great use out of the livestreaming and video editing capabilities this interface has to offer. But I guess we’ll have to wait and see about that.
Here’s the gallery:
So, what do you think of this new design g1s? Do you plan on pressing the “share button”?

I hope that it'll be separated by video game communities like Miiverse. I don't want to see 12 year-olds spamming my wall with Cod videos.

Don't be friends with 12 year-olds. Looks to mean it will show only what your friends are up to. Like a more advanced listing that the Vita does for what you and your friends have done.

I like how with the Nintendo systems have a lot of customization when it comes to your system home page. I like to keep my games organized by genre, or even by series. I am not seeing this with Sony nor with Microsoft.

People now like to find their cheap air tickets online because they know there will be some sites which will be offering their desired rates. One special about internet is the comparison among different websites. There are several sites which provide these services. They do not actually sell tickets. But, they provide comparison of various sites that sell air tickets. You can visit those sites for rate comparison. Also, there are many discussion sites where you can go and put your queries about finding less priceair tickets. Internet is a global village. There would be a lot of people who would have experienced buying low cost air ticket recently. They will guide you to find tickets. Cheap Air Tickets
