‘Morning burrpers, howdy?

Many of you are wondering why we are not sending out movie tickets to featured reviews for the last few weeks.

Here’s why - The burrp! team noticed that the users focus was gradually deviating from helping the community and writing passionate fun-to-read reviews about real experiences to writing reviews for the sake of winning movie tickets. This made us decide, that while the really awesome reviews will continue to get their special spot on the homepage, we will no longer use ongoing monetary means to reward them. Our aim is to generate quality reviews. If some users are discouraged by this decision, so be it because it should never have been about the movie tickets. The tickets were a reward not a bait.

All said and done, every once in a while if we do notice a review that totally bowls us over, we may just send that burrper a special care package to tell them how much we love them!

We are happy to announce another development; we’ve now added search suggestions on TV. Just as in burrp! local, when one types in the search box on tv.burrp.com a drop down of suggestions appear.

Why suggestions? To assist our much loved users of course.

No worries if you don’t quite know the spelling of the show you’re looking for & yes we wish to spoil you too, simply select the suggestion if you find it tiresome to type the entire title out.

Give it a spin on burrp!TV
