Ahhh the wonderful world of the Internet. I love it so. I have stated before that I did my Masters thesis in Social Computing, which is pretty much Web 2.0 stuff. What is Web 2.0? To describe it simply, The Movie Blog falls into the Web 2.0 category because it’s a Blog and caters towards an online community. Community is the key phrase.

I recently have been fooling around with yet another movie community outlet Flixster. Flixster is pretty neat and if your into collaborating on movies you’ll have a blast.

Here’s how Flixster works. First you set up your free account, set up your profile and invite some friends. Then you take a quick movie quiz. Basically they toss a number of titles at you and you rate them and provide a review if you wish. This information helps you connect with others who share similar movie tastes. You can join groups and chat it up on your favorite movie topics.

Flixster also has an In Theaters section where it lists all of the current pictures being shown on the big screen. You can read other users reviews, add your own reviews and tag them as “I want to see it” or “No interest”. The same goes for DVD’s an your personal movies list.

If your into movies and online communities, Flixster is much fun and entertaining. Check it out and look me up while your there, I’m listed as Berf.
