Tablets and smartphones dominate our mobile lives. So it makes sense that apps would break into our living rooms, too.
Social networks like Twitter and Facebook always go nuts when a popular show premieres or finishes. Developers and companies are taking advantage of this phenomenon by making apps that complement the TV watching experience.
Take, for example, Viggle, an iPhone app that lets you check in when watching TV, earning you points. The points can then be redeemed for a Starbucks card or Best Buy gift card.
These other apps also enhance your TV watching experience, making your favorite movies or TV shows even better.
