Hulu adds playlists and streamlines navigation

If you're a fan of streaming TV and movie site Hulu, you just got a little holiday present: a playlist feature and a new navigation bar. The plus symbol near each video brings up the option to add that video to your queue or add it to a playlist, and the playlist option will prompt you to create a new list or pick an existing one. At long last, watching episodes or movies back-to-back on Hulu is a relatively frictionless experience.

Once you've created your playlists, you can find them in the Browse menu, part of the improved Hulu navigation bar at the top of the site. Most of the things you'll want to find on Hulu have been consolidated into "Browse": Movies, TV Shows, Trailers, Genres, Playlists, and "Coming Soon." Genres used to be called "Channels" on Hulu, but that was ambiguous and confusing, and the new name is a big improvement. "Coming Soon" is a fairly recent addition that lets you preview what's going to be added to Hulu in the next week. Along with the Browse menu, "Most Popular" and "Recently Added" menus will also help you find what you're looking for.
