Viewers will have their own social networks within TVlize to share comments and tags on a show either privately, in a group or publicly. Broadcasters can use TVlize solutions to get accurate statistics, know when viewers join a program and when they leave and how much they are interacting with the program. TVlize can also allow broadcaster to embed HTML content with the show being broadcasted so that viewers can get more information from the show or links pointing to deals or discounts.
