Gibson Biddle is the Vice President of Product Management at Netflix, an online movie rental service with over 10 million subscribers. We've asked him to post on the Facebook blog about how Netflix and Facebook are bringing you a new way to connect with your friends at the movies.
At Netflix we believe that movies make for great conversations. That's why we are excited to announce a new way for you to join the conversation with your Facebook friends about your favorite movies using Facebook Connect.
...Netflix members can seamlessly link their Netflix and Facebook accounts through Facebook Connect, turning the connection on or off at any time. You can get started by logging in to Netflix.com using your Facebook account.
From there, you'll be able to rate a movie from one-to-five stars and write reviews. You'll have the option to share that information back to Facebook, where your friends can see it regardless of whether or not they are Netflix subscribers.
Your Facebook friends can learn more about a specific movie that you've reviewed by following a link back to the appropriate movie page at Netflix. If they are a Netflix member, they can also add that movie to their own Netflix queue to rent and watch later.
With Facebook Connect, we hope it will be easier for you to share the movies you love with all your friends. Join the conversation today, and let us know your feedback on the Netflix Facebook Page.
Gib can't wait to connect with his friends about their favorite films.
