    • ]]>     Nothing can drive a TV fan more nuts then really getting involved in a show for several weeks, only to have it come up with a rerun the next week. Especially when it catches you be surprise. It would at least be nice to know if the upcoming episode was in face a repeat or not. Well, there’s a simple website that will give you the quick answer.

    One my fellow MakeUseOf writers Jorge, recently came up with a very simple and easy to use website to tell whether or not your show is in fact going to be a duplicate in their upcoming episde. It’s called RerunCheck.

    RerunCheck takes the pain of scraping through tough to read tv listings, and simply displays whether or not your favorite upcoming show is going to be a repeat or not. Simply enter the search for the name of your show and a Yes or No will pop-up on your screens.

    There are also RSS updates to get continuous and regular updates on a show you’d like and you may finally create your own account to manage several shows and display what their upcoming show will be.

    • ]]>     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.
