Today, the Internet Explorer team announced a partnership with DailyBurn.com that helps you take your workout to a new level using the browser on your phone, tablet and IE for Xbox 360. If you’re not familiar with DailyBurn, it allows users to sync their workouts, interact with personal trainers or track their nutrition goals across devices, all on the Web. Add to that the power of IE on Xbox, and you’ve got the DailyBurn experience on the big screen. Take a look at the video below to see it in action.
In his post on the Exploring IE blog, new dad and IE Senior Product Manager of Developer Relations Chewy Chong said, “I love working out, but don’t always have the time to go to the gym. Firing up DailyBurn via IE on my Xbox, and syncing my fitness goals to my Windows Phone or Windows 8 device, provides an easy way for me to track calories burned and interact with the trainers—all while completely engaged with my devices.”
To help you get started, Xbox and DailyBurn have come up with some great offers:
- Starting today, May 1, all Xbox LIVE users will have one month’s access to the IE for Xbox 360 app to surf, explore and experience the Web with sites like DailyBurn.
