Hulu’s new feature: Hulu Friends

Hulu is celebrating its one-year anniversary. Has it been that long already? Hulu has put together something for its users with its “Fan Appreciation” days starting today. Every weekday up to March 20th, Hulu will be unveiling new features and/or content.

Today, Hulu has set up something called “Hulu Friends.” Hulu says you can “See what your friends are doing on Hulu.” To access this feature you have to go to your profile and click the “Friends” tab.

After you agree to allow Hulu to publish your name as your first name and last initial, you can import contact information from Gmail, Facebook, MSN Hotmail, MySpace, Yahoo Mail or you can use your friend’s e-mail or real name. It’s a pretty straight forward procedure. If you’ve ever added friends in Facebook, you’ll get how to do this.
