Just installed it! Pretty cool, now we can stay tuned with the world while helping research... nice one this internet thing. =)
Don't know if I'll use it that much, but it's always nice to see some kind of improvements. Must decide if I leave my ps3 on all nights!

shalom!

It's nice.  It looks beautiful and the real time clouds are a very nice touch.  Just realised it plays my own music, but it crashed on me >.<

All in all a nice feature.

EDIT:  I've just realised it's actually quite beautiful.  It's not just real time weather, but real time light aswell. 

Cool feature...except it'd be nice to get a local option too.  Don't know how much I'll use it but I'm sure I will from time to time. :D

I don't like how it handles the news. i much prefer the Wii news channel compared to this.

I have to agree, i hate opening up the browser for news -_-"

I haven't downloaded it yet but is it something similar to GoggleEarth but instead of Earth, it's weather?

what cities?
like where at in all the globe? like one city per state or what?"

Seattle, San Diego, Los Angeles.... Uhm. Vancouver (not sure if it's BC or WA... I think BC)

Its a great addition but the text is kinda hard to read also it wouldn't hurt to have more cities.

Exactly. Opening the browser for news sucks. Hard. That and I haven't figured out how to zoom yet.

Um Chicago, Washington DC, San Fransisco, and that's all I can remember.  Oh and Miami...that's all off the top of my head.  My they will keep adding more and more cities as we go?"

I hear it's pretty cool. I can't wait to download this when I get home

I wasn't planning on downloading this, but I didn't know they would make it the new folding@home application. It's pretty neat, but I'm just using it to fold@home. I do like that the map is more detailed than the previous f@h application, it's also neat to see where it's night time/day time at in the world.

Yeh I downloaded it and I really liked it.

This is actually making me learn where certain cities are int he world. I know I super suck at geography so its cool so far.

I updated today... it is cool i like it

Forgive me if this sounds elitist, but I don't think the PS3 is the best place to get news. In fact, it has to rank among the worst.
