Social Streaming Platforms

The evolution of online streaming has come in the form of Netflix Party. As though inspired by the social element of many video games out there, Netflix Party allows people in long distance relationships (romantic or not) to watch the same shows and movies together at the same time. Although that can already be done in a way, this chrome extension makes it more sophisticated by introducing group chat sidebar.

Created by Stephan, Netflix Party is not from the beloved streaming platform itself, so beware, but it does usher in another way to enjoy the service. Easy to install, once the plug-in becomes active, it creates a sharable link. From there, people just log on and start chatting and watching to their heart's content.
