Netflix is far and away the largest online DVD rental service in the world. The ease of use and access online, has spread it like wildfire across the United States. One of the huge benefits of a Netflix account is the ability to watch thousands of movies instantly as well. Although accessing and playing these movies is very easy, Netflix is still lacking in the organization and search department. Fortuantely within the past six months, they finally released their API in order for third party users to create their own online apps for the web and including the iPhone. One of those applications based upon this new API is InstantWatcher.
InstantWatcher strips out images and displays movies in a much simpler text format. One of the biggest capabilities that InstantWatcher adds is it’s sorting. I’m sure Netflix will at some point add similar features, but at this point this is the best place to stop.

I am a long time techaholic, blogger and IT administrator living in the Midwestern United States. I have been associated with computers and technology almost my entire life. The obsession started when I first set my eyes on one of the Atari Entertainment Systems and hasn't stopped since.
My Dad paid $3000+ for a state of the art PC back in the day, and I have been on one almost my entire life since. It's truly an addiction that I will never give up.
Along with my Tech addiction, I also enjoy scouring blogs and the web for anything that may be interesting to write about. My posts are displayed here at TheWindowsFix, MakeUseOf and ConnectedInternet.
