Netflix introduced a highly-anticipated Application Programming Interface (API) last month and recently secured partnerships with Samsung Electronics Co., LG Electronics and Microsoft Corp., among others. On Monday, a movie and TV show listing service for the iphone - i.TV - unveiled an app that allows I.TV users and Netflix subscribers to search and manage their Netflix queue.

According to their LinkedIn profiles, Netflix has at least two more recent hires: David Schofield of Williams-Sonoma, Inc. is a Business Intelligence Architect and Brian Emmet is now a Senior Web Developer for the company.
