It makes sense to start getting into the social game. However, it makes more sense for Hulu to either get onboard with other providers like apple TV, Roku and or Microsoft. As well, if the subscription model is more then 5$ a month, and for most people torrents are cheaper and less intrusive! nonetheless, Hulu is heading the way of "Unboxed" a service that we all have heard of, and nobody uses. Why would i spend money on Hulu, a company that has only been tolerated because it's free and pay them? I won't. I will not add you as a friend on facebook either, you had your chance to play nice.

But there's something else new that is troubling me. In the main page, where the big pictures for various shows appear... am I crazy, or are the show names absent? I see nothing that says Fringe for the Fringe screen, nothing that says SNL for the SNL screen, etc. etc. So some shows all there is is a picture, an episode name, but no hint as to what show it is. Or maybe my Flash player is just broken, or maybe I'm just crazy. :) Great new stuff. But there’s something else new that is troubling me.

Why, when a user clicks on the Friends tab, they see their usual newsfeed, not the comments left by friends on this app/episode. Would make sense, right? I don't mean to promote my work, I'm usually really annoyed when people just use comments to do so, but we had developed with my team what I believe is a better Facebook commenting application, for Sprite. I believe we were the first one to place Facebook Connect on YouTube. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/greeneyedworld The 3-tab comment box displays: - everyone's comments on the episode playing and on other episodes - friends' comments on the episode playing and on other episodes - user's comments on the episode playing and on other episodes Which I believe is less misleading and more solid/useful as a discussion tool. You can even reply in-line to some comments. Don't hesitate to share feedback. I believe there is a discrepancy between the expected behavior of the Facebook app and its real behavior.
