Read a thing today about the battle between Walletbuster and Netflix. The general opinion (in the investing world) is that Netflix is just hunkering down and trying to wait out Blockbuster's money-losing pricing.

They're doing more than that. We were just reading that they're about to implement some sweeping changes to how their friends network stuff works, turning it into a much broader community. If it turns out as good as the plans make it sound, it should be a major value-add over Lackluster.

I checked and they have implemented it already. Friends is now called "Community" and it includes, among other things, showing you other users that have similar tastes to yours. It'd be cool to find like-minded movie viewers...

All I really ask is that they make searching easier. Maybe give me a choice between broad and refined categories, etc. I don't always know what I want to watch - sometimes I like to browse.

To be fair, their "suggestions" are very helpful in finding new things.

So I've got this new guilty pleasure called "Rock of Love" on VH1. It's another one of those reality dating shows where one guy (in this case a heavy metal rocker whose name escapes me but has beautiful eyelashes) is looking for a girlfriend, so they piled 20 or so women into a house together with him, and they're all competing for his attention all the time. Hilarity ensues.

Ohmigoshohmigoshohmigosh!! Ratt & Poison??

Round n' round..what goes around comes around, I'll tell you why-y

Steven Pearcy was so hot in his white spandex unitard in that video.

And Poison?? I have a retro Look What The Cat Dragged In concert tee ( in true AllyOops! fashion, the band name on the front of the tee is all covered in sparkling lime green Swarovski crystals. AND YES, I love it although I have yet to wear it).

Aww! I wish I was able to go! It sounds like fun!!
