Chapter 490: Netflix's new features

Los Angeles, Pasadena.
After dinner, Bendtner sat in front of the computer and prepared to go to the Netflix website to select some discs. Tomorrow was the weekend. As there were not enough movies to attract him to buy tickets to watch, he planned to rent a few discs and enjoy Chennai at home. Fly home delivery service.
With Netflix, film rental is much more convenient, and there is no need to go to the Blockbuster store to queue up.
Blockbuster’s service attitude is still not good. Anyway, the few Blockbuster chains that I used to visit often show people the arrogance of giant companies.
Fortunately, now there is Netflix.
Bendtner opened the Netflix website and found that there was an announcement in the prominent position on the homepage. He didn't care about it at the beginning. He directly logged into his account and entered the user interface, and found that it was different from before.
The last time I visited the Netflix website was a week ago. I didn't expect so many changes.
Online video? What is this stuff?
Friend updates? Doesn’t it seem to be before?
Share pictures and videos? What does it mean?
Bendtner opened the online video section curiously and found that it was not a movie video, but some self-portrait videos uploaded spontaneously by users. He found the hottest one at the top and opened it.
The definition of the video is average, similar to that of a public TV station, but it plays smoothly.
Bendtner watched for a while and found out that this was a video about Johnny Depp. Johnny Depp participated in a "Pirates of the Caribbean" promotional event in New York. He was surrounded by crazy fans, and Depp didn't see him at all. In a panic, one after another signed autographs for the fans, even if the bodyguard dragged him away from the place where the fans gathered for safety reasons, Depp struggled to complete the last autograph for the fans.
Johnny Depp is like an autograph madman.
This actually shows that Captain Jack Sparrow is so charming.
Bendtner admired, he also went to the theater to watch "Pirates of the Caribbean", it is indeed a rare good movie.
The video can be commented, and there is also a thumbs-up like function. Bendtner first liked the video, and then wrote a complimentary comment, and found that the video has more than 50,000 likes.
It is said that Netflix has nearly 8 million US dollars of paying users, so it is not surprising that so many likes.
Bendtner also found that there is a sharing function next to the like, which can forward the micro-message through his Netflix account and recommend the video to other friends.
Where are friends? Bendtner scratched his head a bit, returned to the user interface and found that there were detailed explanations for the conspicuous positions. He was anxious to see the new features just now, but didn't pay attention.
Ben Turner quickly browsed the description of the new features and found that any user can upload the video, but the 17 prohibited content is strictly prohibited, and friends can filter and add through the user interface.
Since he had never filmed a video, Ben Turner left the uploaded video aside, focusing on the selection and addition of friends.
There are two filtering functions. One is the recommendation from the system. The website recommends similar users as friends based on the type and hobbies of the user's past rentals.
Bendtner was excited and added several friends recommended by the system in one go. Then he turned to see the optional screening function. This part is clear at a glance. First, if you know the accounts or nicknames of other Netflix users, you can add them directly; One type is fuzzy filtering through system keywords, such as music, football, and movies.
This kind of operation has something in common with ICQ, but it is simpler and easier to use.
Bendtner first screened some friends to add, some quickly responded, and some were probably offline and there was no response.
He thought of his friend Rosicky again, and quickly picked up his cell phone and called him: "It's me, Bendtner! You go to the Netflix website, there is fun."
The sound of the fan turning quickly when the computer was turned on soon rang in the telephone receiver. Ben Turner and Rosicky confessed that after entering the Netflix homepage and reading the announcement, they hung up and added Rosicky as a friend.
After waiting for a few minutes, Rosicky responded and became friends with Netflix.
"This new feature is really not bad!" Rosicky sent him messages. These messages, like new posts, became a separate web page, allowing the two to communicate freely and unimpeded: "You can watch videos online, share videos, and Check your friends' activity."
Bendtner said: "It feels very convenient, like chatting alone in a room."
Rosicky exclaimed: "Wow! There is a guy in the video zone taking extreme sports, which is awesome!"
"Where?" Bendtner asked.
"Wait." Rosicky sent a link: "It's so convenient, I can share the site's videos directly with my friends!"
Bendtner clicked on the link, and a selfie video in the Netflix video area popped up to start playing. He didn't need to spend time looking for it. The video was a selfie taken by an extreme sports enthusiast with a fixed camera, and he was in the square. Skateboarding between obstacles.
In addition to the lack of clarity of the video, it is simply impeccable.
simple! Convenience! fast!
Rosicky suddenly sent an emoticon: "Oh! Oh! Ben, you are not honest, you even rent a film of Tindo Ballas!"
Bendtner denied for the first time: "I didn't."
Rosicki said: "It's useless to deny it. Friends can see the rental history. There is also a hidden function. If you choose to hide, you won't be able to see it."
Bendtner quickly opened the information of Rosia's friends, and he saw the column of rental history. There were ten DVDs recently rented by Rosicky, and the related rental page was directly after clicking it.
Turning off Rosicky's profile page, Ben Turner found that there is a function on the user page to view friends' updates.
After he opened it, the latest micro-messages, uploaded pictures, and posted videos of his friends were all displayed accordingly, which was straightforward.
And not only can you see, like and comment, but you can also use your account to forward.
Bendtner saw that Rosicky reposted a few photos of snow mountains that he didn't know. Those photos seemed to have been specially processed and they were very beautiful.
He quickly found the video of Johnny Depp, and reposted it, and added a special title "Signing Madness"!
In addition, in addition to adding friends, there is also a function to follow users. Ben Turner has carefully read the instructions. It turns out that this function does not need to add friends to each other. As long as you follow a certain user, the website will automatically push the other party's real-time updates to you. .
After turning around on the website, although there are some flaws in some places, Bendtner thinks that the newly added functions are really good, and he can share his favorite movies, pictures and videos, and even the current information text with people in time.
Although the scope is limited to Netflix users, Netflix has 8 million users!
What I wrote might appear in front of 8 million people in an instant, which is really great.
Bendtner has a feeling that he can speak out through a wide range of channels no matter what people or things he encounters!
Think about it, before, only big reporters could do this.
"Ben, hurry up! Follow this user!" Rosicky forwarded a user link: "Tom Cruise! This user is Tom Cruise!"
Bendtner subconsciously thought it was a fake: "Impossible? Tom Cruise will still register Netflix users? Did someone else use his name."
Click on the link, the user name is indeed Tom Cruise, and even the user’s profile picture is the classic image of Tom Cruise in "High Aspirations". Bendtner still doesn't think this is true.
But when he saw the content posted by the other party, he was stunned and realized that it might really be Tom Cruise!
"I work on the set, and the assistant took a few photos to share with you my work."
There is only this piece of content, followed by five pictures, all of which are photos of Tom Cruise during work and breaks on the crew. It is obvious that the background is in an interior studio.
Let alone ordinary people, reporters can't take this kind of photos in the studio. Is this user really Tom Cruise himself?
Bentner subconsciously clicked his attention and found that Tom Cruise was also following others, and he quickly opened his watch list. They were all famous names: Will Smith, Anne Hathaway, Johnny Depp , Lee Ang, and Ronan Anderson, the producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "The Bourne".
He opened them one by one and watched them next to each other. These people have posted content, and they are mainly pictures, which are photos of work and life in relatively closed places.
Combining these, Bendtner truly realized that I am afraid these are all me!
Bendtner all paid attention and thought it was a good thing. If they continue to publish the corresponding content, they can avoid the nonsense entertainment media and learn about the first-hand information and work and life of their favorite stars.
Suddenly, Bendtner's webpage flashed, and the speaker made a short ticking sound. He clicked on the flashing avatar, only feeling dizzy...
The video of Johnny Depp's crazy autograph, which was just forwarded with the title of "Signing Madness", was liked!
And users who liked it showed up-Johnny Depp!
This is not true, is it? Bendtner excitedly clicked on the name, and what popped up was indeed the main page of Johnny Depp that I just saw!
Johnny Depp likes me? Bendtner was still in a daze~EbookFREE.me~ It took a while before he came back to his senses and confirmed this: Johnny Depp gave him a thumbs up!
Bendtner was overwhelmed with excitement. He wanted to take a photo with a camera and then post it with micro-messages, only to find that his mobile phone had no camera function.
In order to vent his excitement, Bendtner deliberately found a repostable Johnny Depp video from the Internet and posted it on Netflix’s video website. Probably Johnny Depp is now a hot spot. A few minutes later , He found that his video had hundreds of clicks.
Because of Netflix’s new features, Bendtner played until nearly 11 o’clock before renting a movie, then went to bed, lying on the bed, but couldn’t fall asleep because of Johnny Depp’s praise. .
Netflix actually allowed him to realize the intimate interaction with idols!
People who are new to social networks like Bendtner cannot think that the user is indeed Johnny Depp, but it may be an inconspicuous member of the Depp team or other employees who liked him.
