While FF'ing through some commercials of a sitcom I had DVR'd the other night, I briefly saw a commercial about this. Based on the brief seconds I saw of it while FF'ing through, I thought it was some sort of Google product, but after reading some information on their website, it's definitely not, and not what I was expecting either. That said, I wanted to see if anyone else has heard about this... personally, I don't foresee it catching on mainstream, but what do I know ??

Looks like an interactive Nielsen social networking box.

Funny though when I watch TV / movie my preferences relate to watching TV versus a concurrent social interaction and commenting on what I am watching on some social web site to other people..

I do see it catching on mainstream with today's youth that are used to micro mini video bytes and audio bytes of information Yes I don't think it bugs many of the youth today to carry on a social conversation on some social media site while they watch TV; actually might be the only social interaction with people that they have. They most likely are already on Facebook or Twitter commenting to their social media site peers on whatever it is that they are watching
