Verizon FiOS TV Gets Twitter, Facebook Widgets

Verizon Communications added widgets for social-networking platforms Twitter and Facebook to its FiOS TV service, joining the one-click Internet-based applications that provide news headlines and weather to its subscribers, CNET News reported.

The Twitter and Facebook widgets are essentially one-way, as users will be able to read updates but won’t be able to update their accounts.

For the Twitter widget, FiOS TV subscribers will see Tweets from the entire Twitter community based on either a category or topic they’ve selected or based upon what they’re currently watching on TV, according to CNET News.
