Here are some tips to make you a master of your Netflix account. Did you know you can create up to five profiles per account? This is great if you share your Netflix account with someone else, but you can also use it to set up “themed” accounts, like “Date Night” or “Movies the Kids Love.” To add a profile to your account, click “Manage Profiles” in the settings menu on Netflix.com. And, if you do most of your Netflix browsing on your computer, make sure to try browser extensions like Netflix Enhancer for Chrome, which make finding great movies easier by adding ratings from IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes, along with a link to the movie’s trailer. You can’t view these features on a mobile device or streaming box, but it makes setting up your queue on your computer better than ever. Finally, sites like “What’s New on Netflix” have complete lists of new movies and shows available on the service. Enjoy the movie… and don’t forget to pass the popcorn.
