RIMOUSKI, QC – Telus customers in Quebec can now browse Facebook from their televisions without missing a minute of their favourite TVshows.
The company’s new Facebook application, available free to Optik TV customers, allows subscribers to share what they are watching on their Facebook wall, view status updates, write messages, and display photo albums from Facebook on their TVs in full-screen slide show mode.
"We have pulled out all the stops with Optik TV, which reflects the company’s commitment to innovation, inspiration and change. The result is amazing. Seeing is believing," said Clément Audet, VP of consumer marketing, in the announcement. “Telus continues to innovate by integrating the popular social networking capability of Facebook with Optik TV. This new function is one more example of Telus’ leadership in exploiting the full power of IP technology."
Optik TV service is available in the Lower St. Lawrence, the Gaspé, the North Shore and the greater Quebec City region of the province. Telus launched the service to its TV customers in Alberta and B.C. early last month.
