After just two months, Hulu has become the 10th most popular video site on the internet, beating out all the major networks. Hulu users averaged 129.3 minutes per month, smashing nearest rival ABC.com, which sees an average of 57.3 minutes per user per month.
Now ABC, which has been among the most progressive of the networks, punches back with some shiny new player features including “full-screen viewing, closed captioning and the ability to send video links that can be embedded on blogs and social networks.” Users will be able to “comb series offerings graphically, alphabetically, by genre or popularity. [The new interface also includes] content recommendation technology that suggests programs based on a viewer’s choices.”
