YouTube – News!

YouTube is a pretty boring website in terms of news. It never actually has anything new or worth mentioning. So I’m glad to report that I spotted some new changes today. And here they are:

1) There’s a new button for selecting which kind of HD footage you would like to load. You can choose from 360p, 480p (default) or 720p. There’s always the choice of dropping back to regular if you’re on a slow connection.
2) You can choose whether to display the video across the whole browser window or just across half of it. This button existed before but it’s now had it’s place stolen by…
3) A button which when clicked opens the video in a new window. Quite why you would want to do this when you get the same quality and size in both windows is beyond me. But it’s up in the top right corner nevertheless.
4) The full-screen button has a new look. That’s not really worth mentioning to be honest but it’s part of the minor overhaul and thus must be included in this list! Lest I look ignorant.
