Throng
October 19, 2006
We’ve finally opened the doors to Throng - for TV fans from New Zealand. There hasn’t been any other site where kiwis can go and find a community of TV fans to discuss what’s on TV until Throng.
Some features:
- Each member gets their own blog to post about their rants, raves and goss on TV shows.
- You can read members’ blogs, or each show’s blog (which pulls in all the posts from members’ blogs which are relevant), or just read news, spoilers, rants, raves separately on their own blogs.
- Members add the shows they love and hate and popularity charts show what the community thinks overall.
- Members add other members’ blogs they love to follow and members can become popular TV show critics.
- The site features the Personal+Community tag cloud (you’ll need to add your show preferences to see the colors) I blogged about earlier.
- The site also features a shop with DVDs from Amazon (handily in New Zealand dollars for once!).
We’re really proud of the site and have big ideas and plans for it after almost two years of dreaming about what we’d like the site to achieve.
Go check out Throng.
There’s lots of things we’ll still be working on and features to be added so feedback and suggestions over there most welcome.






Rachel! Thats awesome, did you develop all of that yourself? Hats off to you. I hope that it’s really succesful.
