I wonder what his stats and graphs will look like on the site I started: http://feedfliks.com

You actually get a plug in the article itself. Cool site by the way. IIRC, it was made in one of those quick-sprint exercises, no?

No, not exactly quick-sprint :-)

My apologies, I had this confused with Qflip.net, from the Rails Rumble 08 competition, not even close to the same idea. I guess my memory is not as sharp as I would hope.

Well since you asked, let's see if can't get this for you :). Also I found your site through Netflix itself which I take to mean that they don't wholly disapprove of such a venture. Did you have to get your app concept cleared with them at all?

Not at all. As far as I can tell, Netflix is very supportive of FeedFliks. They did want me to change the name from FeedFlix to FeedFliks.

And yeah - if you can get the ZenMaster to post what his stats look like on FeedFliks, that would be great too!

If I decide to quit FeedFliks can I make it delete all my data?
Re:The Netflix Zen Master by raghus on Wednesday August 12, 2009 @08:53PM (#759717)
Yes, absolutely
Re:The Netflix Zen Master by staunch on Wednesday August 12, 2009 @08:56PM (#759722)
Knowing that I can makes me more likely not to, actually. How do I do it if I want to? (Please don't say "Just contact us"!)

Sorry, but for now this is not 100% self-service. Once you're logged in, just submit the feedback text field with something like 'please delete my account' and I'll be sure and know exactly which a/c to delete. It should be deleted in a few hours at most.
