ReadWriteWeb has discovered a new way to browse Netflix InstantWatch titles. I am a huge fan of the InstantWatch system. It always seems that when I have time to watch a movie, either my discs are still in transit or I’m not in the mood for the movie I have. Without InstantWatch, I may have already ditched Netflix even though I think it is an excellent service even if the only offering were discs by mail. There is nothing like the convenience of being able to sit down and watch any time I please. The newly launched Xbox 360 integration is icing on the cake.

One of my biggest complaints about Netflix in general is that browsing for movies is very inflexible. For instance, while browsing Blu-ray movies, I can’t filter by genre. In the InstantWatch section, it seems there are too few ways to separate the good from the bad. In short, any site that will make it easier for me to find cool stuff on InstantWatch is a site that gets tagged in my delicious. Instantwatcher.com offers just that. I’m already loving the “Highest rated” list and the ability to call up a random title.
