If you haven’t checked out Miso, you should. (Miso is a Foursquare-like app for TV for the iPhone.  Download it here).  One feature that we have been requested from some of the people we have talked to is the ability to talk to other friends about a TV show in real-time.   I’m not sure this will work for MOST TV shows.  

The idea of real-time is getting so much buzz right now, but would people actually give play-by-plays of what they are watching?  Would you do it? 

People just want to watch the TV show.  Who wants to start engaging in real-time chatter with their friends through an app while their favorite show is on TV.  People just want to watch the content and move on.  This is not necessarily true of ALL TV shows - live events like Oscars, MTV Music Awards, sports games, where there are performances and people are not 100% tuned-in to every single aspect of the show, well, in that case, sure real-time chatter could be fun and useful.   

It seems that even in the broader scale, this just doesn’t work which is why YouTube just killed their real-time toolbar.
