Here I am again with part 2 of my 45 things you can do with your PlayStation 3 list but before we start I would just like to remind you that most of the points listed here are things you likely already know. The purpose of this list is purely to serve as a reminder of all the small little features PS3 owners so often tend to forget about and I’m pretty sure my list doesn’t even cover half it. Heck, I’ll happy with just the games and Bluray player alone. Anyway, enough rambling, let’s get on with it.
24.) Listen to music
The PS3 supports full MP3 (and WMA if enabled) playback. The included visualizations are however quite limited in quantity but definitely makes up for it in quality. Alternatively you can also import your iTunes playlists.
25.) View images
Viewing images on the PS3 is simply a breeze since it supports most major formats such as JPEG, TIFF, BMP, GIF, and PNG.
26.) Upgrade firmware
Sony is constantly adding new features and tweaks to the PS3 so if you haven’t updated your firmware yet I suggest grabbing the latest version since you can now…
27.) Edit videos
Thanks to firmware 3.40 the PS3 now includes a video editor which offers a few basic functions such as the ability to cut videos and add music. The videos can then also be uploaded to the Internet.
28.) Motion controls
Watch out Wii, the awkwardly named PlayStation Move is on the horizon and by the looks of it; it also seems to cater for the hardcore crowd. Just don’t let you friends catch you playing with it alone 
29.) Customize your profile
I will admit that the profile customization options on the PS3 are quite limited but at least you’re still able to select an avatar, change your PSN ID display colour and add a status update.
30.) Themes
There are tons and tons of free XMB themes available for download all over the net or alternatively you can try one of the dynamic themes offered on the PS Store.
31.) Media Center
The PS3 also allows you to steam music, movies and pictures directly from your PC. Microsoft Media Player 11 will work fine although I personally recommend you check out the PS3 Media Server application which offers better playback compatibility.
32.) PS Home
PlayStation Home is a virtual community type application which allows you to create an avatar to roam around with. There’s however not really much to do besides creating your own apartment and checking out the scenery but hey, at least it’s free.
33.) Remote keyboard (and play) via Sony Viao
If you lucky enough to own a “P” series Sony Viao notebook I’m happy to inform you that you can now use it as a keyboard for your PS3. There have however been reports of connection problems so an alternative option would be to…
34.) Connect a USB keyboard
You can connect a USB (or compatible Bluetooth) keyboard and/or mouse to your PS3 but just don’t expect to play games with it.
35.) Connect to the Internet
No, the PS3 does not include a modem of any kind. I’ve actually met some folks who honestly believe the PS3 includes an integrated ADSL router. You can however connect the console online via Ethernet or Wireless.
36.) Browse online
Well since you’re connected to the Internet why not make use of the pretty decent integrated browser. I’ve even used the browser to…
37.) Blog
Yep, you can even blog from your PS3 which a quite nifty for folks like me who prefer to work from the err… couch. Also supported is the terribly famous…
38.) Facebook
I’m actually not a huge fan of Facebook but who am I to argue with the millions of users who simply worship it. Don’t expect to play Farmville though.
39.) Join PlayStation Plus
PlayStation Plus is a newly launched subscription service that offers premium features such as full game trails, automatic downloads, store discounts and more at a minimal cost so I would definitely recommend checking it out.
40.) Youtube
Need to take a break from gaming? Chill out a bit and enjoy some Youtube videos while relaxing on the couch.
41.) Listen to radio
You can stream radio on your PS3 with services such as Pandora and rumour is that Hulu and Last.FM might also be coming soon.
42.) Folding@home
Folding@home one of the world’s largest distributed computing projects and the goal of the project is to understand protein folding, misfolding and related diseases. You too can become part of this project with your PS3.
43.) Create multiple users
The PS3 supports multiple users each with their own theme, save data and trophies. Just keep in mind that music, videos, images and PSN games are shared with every user.
44.) PSP remote play
Remote play allows your PSP to interact with your PS3 granting access to images, music, video and selected games.
45.) Enjoy the silence
I originally wanted to list Linux but due to discontinued support I opted for something totally simple and overlooked. Optical drives generally tend to be quite noisy but luckily for PS3 owners the Bluray drive is whisper quiet and this is probably one of my most appreciated aspects of the console. It’s not a function but it sure is a blessing.
