Just when it seemed the entire wonders of the net were destined to just work at the second screen, Sony ‘s firmware update for its 2011 Bravia TVs is making us rethink things. For starters, now you can enjoy those HD YouTube videos in HD or even stay alongside of your friend’s photos, videos and shared links on Facebook . Also, now they’re compatible with a brand new lite version of the Remote Keyboard app — a feature previously exclusive to Vaio PCs and Xperia smartphones. Finally, now you can get live Twitter updates along the underside of your screen or even use a Shazam like feature called Track ID to come to a decision the names of songs, or their artists, which are played during your shows or commercials. The free update is offered now for people with compatible sets, people with older Bravia TVs, though. Not loads.
