Netflix: 1 week in
As I mentioned last week, I started a Netflix trial in order to test out some of the social networking features they've added (Friends). Unfortunately, the feature isn't available to all members yet. In the meantime, I have been able to watch a sh!tload of movies.
In the first week of my trial, I have received 5 movies with one currently on the way. So far, I've had "Slacker," "Fahrenheit 911," "Before Sunset," "Spider-Man 2" and "Dodgeball." The spelling bee documentary "Spellbound" is currently on the way.
I mailed back two of the aforementioned movies this morning, so I should have "City of God" and "Elephant" tomorrow or Wednesday.
At this rate, I could get about 20 movies per month (for $18). Sweet! I need more hard dri- uh, never mind.
