Netflix Up Close and Personal

Well, if you ever wanted to feel a personal connection with people who work on the UI of Netflix, you can read the Netflix blog. The way they write the blog is a littel strange because they seem pretty apologetic/afraid of angry customers. I've definitely encountered angry users, so I can see where they are coming from, but it seems a bit odd to be so timid from the get go. But I guess you can assume that many of the Netflix users are rabid/jaded/terrifying technology power users. Or at least the ones who would seek out a Netflix blog. As opposed to say, the Us Weekly blog... But it is interesting to see the new features that are being added into Netflix to make it a more fun community experience.
