      I’m not sure I’ll hold that in too high a regard. Google employees also supposedly tested Buzz and that was quite a debacle.

        I like how they say “with each other”. My wife’s tastes are totally different than mine. She has no interest in Hung or True Blood just like I don’t have any interest in the Biggest Loser or most any other reality tv show. Weeds and the occasional game show are about the only shows we both like.

        And I’d like to see how they are going to get the content Hulu has, I don’t see Hulu sharing out their content with the competition. Isn’t Hulu owned by a network?

          I read the article a little deeper and it brings up the idea of sending video to a friend – so if you watched a show and loved it you could “fling” it to their playlist.

            yeah, the “fling” idea has been around Boxee for quite some time. I’m curious what major deals Google has in the works on this. Hulu is owned actually by several major studios (NBC for sure), so as you mentioned, unless Google promises large $$$ it’s hard to see them complying
