Did you know there is a Netflix app for the iPhone? Did you know that this is the greatest thing to happen to slacking at work since they included Solitaire on Windows 3.0? Is this a bit of an overstatement? Sure it is, but hyperbole is a basic tenet of blogging.
With the Netflix app for my iPhone, I can watch movies and TV at my desk without worrying that some IT person is going monitor my slacking and send HR to storm my desk and stop my fun. The app works well over the 3G network and stalls infrequently. This means that I get to watch all the dorky shows that I want while having my computer monitor display email messages, Word documents, spreadsheets, etc. Right now I’m getting paid to watch the entire Battlestar Galactica series.
I think that this app is best with series, especially Sci-Fi series. I’ve watched the entire Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on the phone, and that seemed to be perfect. However, that was just an entrée into dorky Sci-Fi series. I’m excited to finish BSG and then move on to something even dorkier. Maybe I’ll start Sliders next?
