Oh, So Savvy. Oh, Miso Savvy

As if social networking apps such as Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare weren't enough, now it's even easier for everyone to know where you are...and...what you're watching?

Over the past two weeks, I've noticed a huge increase in posts on my Twitter timeline and Facebook news feed from Miso (gomiso.com), the "social TV platform that makes watching TV more fun".

Similar to Foursquare, where users share their location with friends while collecting points and virtual badges, Miso (not the soup) lets users "check-in" to TV shows and sporting events they are watching.  It even lets you choose the season and episode, which is especially useful when watching a recorded show, such as on your DVR or VCR. (Does anyone even own a VCR anymore?)

What's next, an app for food?  We can call it "APPetizer"! Imagine checking in to pizza or key lime pie! Pretty soon our Facebook and Twitter profiles will go something like, "Denise is at Applebee's via Foursquare", "eating boneless buffalo wings via APPetizer" and "watching The New York Mets via gomiso."

 And then we complain about our privacy...
