Sony has updated the interface of their BRAVIA smart TVs to support social networking and high-definition YouTube videos. The new BRAVIA firmware has support for Facebook galleries, messages, status updates, and links. There is a Twitter ticket that scrolls updates from your followers.

Sony announced today that they are creating several new models in their TV line.  The new TVs will have additional networked features.  The new models have 1920×1080 progressive resolution.  The new networked models of TVs have an ethernet connection so that it can access Amazon.com Video on Demand, YouTube, Yahoo! Widgets, Sony Pictures, and Sony Music.

BRAVIA Internet Widgets are provided by Yahoo! Widgets.  Internet content can be accessed through Yahoo! News, Video, Finance, and Flickr.
