Why do people spend so much time on the dashboard, what do they do?

As for IE with gold only, quite right

Transitioning between Windows media Center, Youtube, Netflix, Party Chat, Vevo and now IE. I imagine a lot of people spend time on the dashboard. Those are the things I use on the 360 so I for one see the dashboard quite often

I understand that people may want to use the functionality of the dash but for me personally when I turn the xbox on it is purely to play a game.

Updated and trying out this smart glass stuff.

Seems rubbish so far, was hoping to control internet explorer on my iPad ??

I'm guessing it has to be a windows tablet or phone for the best experience ??

Sure it only works with Windows 8 for the time being.

Is this a compulsory thing? I don't need it

Nope, tried the Android app earlier. Works well with IE, nothing interesting to o with it yet though.

You need ICS I believe.

It seems Microsoft have changed the server used for the dashboard adverts. It used to be rad.msn.com and I had that blocked preventing adverts but now they're coming through.

Hmm... Well since the update there's a 1 in 3 chance my xbox gets stuck signing in to my xbox live profile, and I have to restart. =/
