Flixster is a social media for film enthusiasts. Although I consider myself one, I haven’t been very active using Flixster. Unfortunately, while I’m a movie enthusiast, I don’t have the same enthusiasm for writing movie reviews. Sure, I’ll write every now and then just as I did with Across the Universe, or Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, or even Team America. It’s most likely that what I wrote would remain in my blogs, and it’s unlikely for me to transfer it to Flixster.

Flixster’s user-interface can be confusing I think, and its modification flexibility is taken too far, with its sites now resembling the over-glittering MySpace sites. The book review social media site, GoodReads, got it correctly by following Facebook’s lead in design, functionality, and interactivity. As such, there is more likelihood for my book reviews to be posted on the two sites rather than my movie reviews.

I have no plan to retire Flixster just yet. But, I won’t be too terribly active myself. I have put my Flixster link on the Social Media widget.
