Sony is still hard at work supporting PlayStation Home, and is planning to roll out a new update tomorrow that will add several new features. The PlayStation.Blog outlines the additions, which seem to focus on ease of use for the virtual space. This will bring Home up to version 1.35, and Sony is touting it as a "streamlined interface." The feature list includes:
Favorites: Personalize your own section to make locating your favorite places quick and simple.
Personal Spaces: Your clubhouses and personal spaces are now right at your fingertips. The personal spaces you own and the clubhouses you belong to will be viewable in one convenient location.
Friends: Finding your friends in PlayStation Home has never been easier. View the current location of your friends in PlayStation Home, and then navigate there to enjoy the action together.
Explore: Browse all the spaces PlayStation Home offers. Finding a space that suites your taste and mood has never been easier.
Recommend: Keep up with what's hot in PlayStation Home. This regularly updated category will feature the newest and most exciting additions to PlayStation Home.
Though the new features focus on making Home faster and easier, it may not be enough to bring back the lapsed user base. We've heard recent reports that advertisers are pulling away from Home, so Sony is probably hoping this will bring in enough new users to attract advertisers. The company boasted over 12 million registered users of the virtual space, but didn't specify how many of them use it regularly.

There are several advantages to shopping online, the first one being the ability to shop at a time that is convenient to you, not just when the shops are open. The second advantage of shopping online is that goods are often cheaper as the seller does not have the costs of running a shop and having to pay wages to salespeople, insurance and all of the other running costs of a real world business.
