Latest Activity

I don't think that there has been anything that could be considered trolling in Instant Watching Help Center group. Also, most of the difficult issues concern the users' computer configuration. Do the Hulu guys analyze that? For example, do they l...

Sounds like the place to be.

Yeah, hulu desktop is really nice. And what I like best about it, is that they have a forum where you can ask question and make comments and hulu staff actually answer you! Not just angry trolls. =)

Hey guys. I don't have a great deal of visibility into this issue - but it's my sense from what we're seeing that the Friends features are being slowly (or rapidly now) let go. Of course i'm not thrilled about it (since I created these things) but...

Here's a place to ask technical questions that others may have answers too, or at least similar problems with which you could discuss and troubleshoot with.

Name change, some visual changes...

Maybe it's the hour, and maybe i'm being ridiculous, but this community is YOUR community - it's not mine and it's not from Netflix, and I guess i was thinking that it might be confusing to some people when it looked so much like the community page from which it is now (temporarily?) linked, when it had the same logo treatment as the Netflix Community (and color scheme), and that it presented itself as "THE" community, when in fact it is just one of any number that could exist.

So, in a modest… Continue

Blog Experiment

Do we need a "community" here, and a blog elsewhere? Ideally perhaps both would be "within" the netflix pages, but even if they are not, couldn't they both be merged somehow?

I'm going to copy a couple of my 'classic' blog posting from the Community Blog and add them here, just to see how all this works and whether i think it is a good or better location for blog stuff.

Your suggestions and feedback are, of course, valued.

Moving the Needle

When I add something to the site — like the Latest Reviews block or the Members Top 10 Lists, I am looking to see how many of our subscribers use it, and come back to use it again. For whom does this feature add value? My goal is to add lots of value for as many people as i can. A new feature doesn’t have to appeal to everyone, of course. We have a lot of subscribers, after all, and you all have a very wide range of needs and preferences. Some things we do might be useful to everyone (s… Continue

The Product Tax

Your feature ideas are great, and your obvious passion is a tribute, I think, to what we've done so far. So I'm going to have another one of those "out on a limb" conversations here about product design. (It's possibly too much for a blog like this, but...) there was something in a few of your postings that comes up often, and it includes the expression that the solution to a problem is "obvious." This has triggered something in me. A number of new community features will roll out next week and… Continue

Ahoy!

As the creator of this network -- and thanks, by the way! -- do you have any control over the widgets that appear in the right-hand margin? Specifically, I am wondering about the rotating display of recently uploaded photographs. It seems to be dominated by girlie pix that have only a tenuous connection to cinema, at best. I'm not offended but people get the wrong idea about my browsing habits if they happen to glance over my shoulder. Is there some way to make that widget optional?

Sincerely,

[:-)] Mark

I noticed you had Firefly in your Q. I'm re-watching it again myself. I just finished with disk 2 "Jaynestown". What an excellent series! So so sad to see it go. Good to see people still enjoying it though.
