a purely technical post....

ok, i've got a bit of the OCD. i like to make lists and organize things. groundcat and i share a netflix account, and we're up to over 300 movies. and i hate the way it's organized! you have one big list (called a "queue") and you can only change the order, you can't sort by category, title, or date added. it's just a big ugly list.

i want to be able to sort these movies by genre (we have so many horror films, i could do a whole sub-genre of "horror- zombie" films!) i want to be able to sort them by who added the film (me or the boyfriend.) i played around with the list of the website, and there is no way to export directly into an excel doc. i tried various ways of "select all" and then copy and paste.

i ended up spending 3 hours trying to copy & paste into excel, removing all the embedded formats, and manually deleting additional spaces. horrible!

i went online to research and found an interesting article that basically says, "there's no way to get the info from netflix into an easier format, you're screwed!"

i know, no one cares. i just had to vent!
