Xbox Live head Marc Whitten took Microsoft's stage today at E3 to announce several new dashboard updates and features for the service.

Whitten said the new Xbox 360 dashboard can be controlled completely with your voice. You can also access your PC media libraries using Kinect. As for partnerships, Whitten announced Youtube is coming to Xbox Live. He did not specify whether or not it would fully support Youtube or if it's select content.

Xbox Bing was also announced with voice command search. "You say it, Xbox finds it," Whitten said. Additionally, Xbox Live TV was announced with voice command DVR support.

UFC pay-per-view is also coming to Xbox live. Company president Dana White took the stage to make the announcement.

These updates will go live in the fall.

It hasn't needed an update, yet!

I can't wait for the update! I'm really glad that I got Kinect for Christmas. I think that it'll be a huge success!

kinect will thrive, but not as well as Wii motion or Move.

I think Xbox took yet another step in the right direction by getting partnered with youtube and preforming the voice control functions. Once I get a kinect, I will be sure to check this out.
