Trakt.tv started as a side project when @rudf0rd, @jimmydouglas and I wanted Last.fm-like scrobbling functionality for XBMC (now Kodi). Automatic tracking of what we watched and collected made scaling a media collection easier and a lot more fun. Little did we know that it would turn into a full-time job! We have scrobblers for all major media centers and a full featured API that powers lots of mobile apps and other community projects. Four years in, we now have over one million users, all acquired organically with no marketing budget or outside investors. We have those users to thank for making this journey possible, as the majority of our operational costs are covered by VIPs who have contributed money year after year. Thank you so much!

And what a ride it has been! We are so grateful for all of the support from the community over the years. This is only the beginning! By the way, for those who like our rebrand and new site design, take a look at http://www.wongfremont.com/. Darick is the mastermind behind our beautiful new look.

I created a collection to keep track of Trakt.tv powered apps as they're hunted. http://www.producthunt.com/@barn...

I hate to sound like an old man here, but why would I want to track what I watch on TV? I read your site but I'm still a bit confused on what benefits I get from this?

@fbara Hey Frank, there are lots of benefits with 2 standing out the most. As a member, you get a customized progress page to keep track of exactly where you're at with watching all your shows. With streaming and binge watching so common these days, our users get a lot of benefit with Trakt keeping track of this for them. For an example, here is my progress page: http://trakt.tv/users/justin/pro... Another benefit is discovering new movies and TV shows to watch. Good places to start there are the trending pages for TV shows (http://trakt.tv/shows/trending) and movies (http://trakt.tv/movies/trending).

@fbara the other thing about tracking what shows you are watching is that people are watching more TV than ever on a multiple of hardware and platforms. It is extremely convenient to know what the last episode I was watching, how many episodes left in a season, etc. And then there is the sharing factor. You post to social and people will reach out to you. Getglue and Miso laid the foundation, however managing personal time like TV is easily one of the next big nuggets to crack.

@zedsq @fbara Yes. Thank you! On that note of multiple hardware, with Trakt.tv you can actually set it up so you can pick up where you left off from one device to the next.
