This post was written by Andrew Nattan
It’s not just their news page that BBC Internet have been revamping – following a very popular beta test, the Beeb have relaunched their iPlayer service.
Now users won’t just be able to catch up with BBC TV programmes, they’ll be able to share thier opinions of the show using the integrated social media functions.
You’ll be able to sync iPlayer up with your Facebook and Twitter accounts, as well as pre-downloading shows so that you can watch them immediately after broadcast. This of course means that you should be able to instantly post spoilers for Doctor Who before the rest of your social circle have chance to watch. Although we at the FirstFound Blog would like to advise you that this is a social faux pas that could lead to you being blocked, unfollowed or worse.
The new BBC iPlayer will be available to download later this week.
