It's that time of year again -- the grass is greener, the flowers are blooming, and you're going to be too busy playing your Xbox 360 to notice any of it. That's right, it's time for the spring update! And what new features do we have to look forward to?

• Windows Live Messenger Integration - Chat with your MSN buddies using the new keyboard attachment (pictured above)


• Improved Achievement unlocked Notifications - No more pulling up the dashboard to see what it is you've unlocked. The new notification pop-up will have the name of the achievement and gamerscore points earned.

That's just a taste. For the full feature list, check out Xbox.com.
