Netflix wants you to recommend shows to your Facebook friends

If you want to inspire your friends with your brilliant entertainment recommendations or inflict your bad viewing choices on others, you can do that now with Netflix. Users in Canada and the U.S. can now send content recommendations to their friends, family, acquaintances, awkward dates, and the like. According to Cameron Johnson, director of product innovation at Netflix, you will be prompted to recommend the show to people in your Facebook list after you finish watching a show. You don’t have to worry about them seeing how much bad television you watch though, that will be kept to you. Also, if your friends’ Facebook accounts aren’t linked to your Netflix, the recommendations will be sent as a Facebook message.
