Feel compelled to inform all your friend that you're watching "Cops" reruns? Is vegging out in front of a "Rock of Love" marathon just not communal enough for you? Not to worry, MySpace will soon be available on select TVs via a widget program developed by Intel and Yahoo.

The social networking site is using MySpaceID to create the "MySpace Widget for TV," which will bring the functionality of the MySpace Web site to your TV. View status updates, comments, and messages, chat with friends, and look up profiles directly on the screen.

The move is part of an initiative announced in August by Intel and Yahoo to bring a widget-based platform to embed applications--and ads--directly on your HDTV. Motorola, Samsung, and Toshiba were among the hardware partners that endorsed the technology at its launch.

Samsung agreed to support the technology inside of selected 2009 TVs, and Adobe said that it would port a version of its Flash Lite technology to the Intel Media Processor CE 3100.

Toshiba said at a Wednesday CES press conference that it will soon release standalone network players that support the Widget Channel applications from Intel and Yahoo and Extender for Windows Media Center technology.
