Comments on: Is DivX Bringing Bookmarking To The TV? http://davisfreeberg.com/2009/05/06/is-divx-bringing-bookmarking-to-the-tv/ Wed, 31 Aug 2011 01:39:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: himay http://davisfreeberg.com/2009/05/06/is-divx-bringing-bookmarking-to-the-tv/comment-page-1/#comment-203380 himay Tue, 12 May 2009 22:28:58 +0000 http://davisfreeberg.com/?p=960#comment-203380 Social bookmarking in video watching is truly a killer feature--not sure yet who's going to be able to lay claim to bringing it to the masses. I'm not sure it'll be DivX, but it will be someone, and it will be cool. I always thought it would be TiVo, but they seem to have taken more the apple route lately, leaving innovation to others and instead focusing on perfecting their core functionalities. Boxee does this really well currently; more than once I've streamed content I've never heard of based on a friend's recommendation. Just so long as my old TV shows don't start looking me up to see how I'm doing the way old friends do on Facebook, I'll be happy as a clam.
