'''History'''
'''History'''
Originally planned by two of the creators as a personal movie review site, it quickly expanded into the idea of a full use social utility revolving around writing movie reviews, members’ favorite movie lists, and the ability to make and interact with friends.
Originally planned by two of the creators as a personal movie review site, it quickly expanded into the idea of a full use social networking utility revolving around writing movie reviews, members’ favorite movie lists, and the ability to make and interact with friends.
In 2005 the original concept was to be called take2review in which both Alex and Josh (co-creators) were trying to publish movie reviews based on their taste of film. The initial goal was to publish enough movie reviews from themselves that they would eventually be posted on rottentomatoes.com. Alex and Josh graduated college in separate years delaying talks and the final details of the website.

In may of 2006 with both parties having graduated and moved to the Kansas City Metro Area, they began discussions of another kind of movie website, one in which members could join, write reviews, and create movie lists. As plans progressed and became more complicated, a web developer would be needed as both Alex and Nick specialized in design and marketing.

'''Technology Used'''
Instant search was added to the site in the initial set up of the project. With members and non members being allowed to simply type a movie name (or friend name) into the search box, results would instantly display below allowing a user to tab to a given result or select it with a mouse pointer.
In addition to the instant search, an important member feature is the ability to create their own top movie list. The drag and drop technology allows a member to add a movie title to their list (via instant search) and then arrange their list by dragging then dropping the title into a desired position.
Just Recently added is the ability for members to delete comments on the fly with out the page refreshing. Other technology related functions are in the works.
