Xbox.com is a great site, in fact I use a lot for my posts and it's nice to see that it will be getting more user friendly in preparation for the Kinect Launch in about 2 weeks. Major Nelson has all the details as usual, and here are a few:
*Browser based Avatar editor: Edit your avatar and preview avatar items before purchase
*Combined views for messages, friend and game requests
*Improved notification of your account subscription
*Leverage Family Reports to understand what your family is doing and how they are using LIVE
*Play web games with your Xbox LIVE friends on the web or on Windows Phone 7
*Marketplace: More powerful search and more intuitive ways to browse and filter

From Major Nelson- "What do you get when members of the Xbox LIVE team hang out with members of the Bing team? Good ideas…that’s what.
