Props for building it and releasing the source code. It makes for a fun pet project. I use other websites/apps for tracking TV shows. Did you check these out?

  Thanks! Yeah, was fun. Quoting my reply to a similar comment: """ Yeah, so I spent 2-3 days trying Trakt, which seems like the market leader. I kinda hated it. It's SO feature-packed that it's overwhelming. I don't need every app I use to be a mini-social-network. One of my favourite things is to build a competitor that does _less_. I built http://panther.audio http://panther.audio, which is essentially a pretty UI for Spotify's "related artists" feature. It does way less than Spotify, but its narrow focus means I can create a great experience for that single function. The other thing is, I just like building stuff :) truthfully, Trakt is probably better for most folks; it just does way more. For me, though, I love that I can spend <10 seconds (page-load time included!) on Tello, instead of waddling through a bunch of sub-menus and pages to find what I need. """ I haven't tried either of the links you suggested, but I'm actually not a fan of email/text reminders. I'm likely at work or doing something else when an email comes in. I want to be able to check on my own schedule, to see when new stuff's available (likely 10 seconds before I sit on the couch). But yeah, different strokes for different folks :)

    I think what you've built is beautiful. Sorry to hear you hate Trakt though. =(
