I think what the internet is doing, as a whole, is slowly eroding any shred of privacy we have. It keeps popping up "ResettisReplicas likes this video", "xX1AEM1Xx has favourited such and such", I don't care! I just want to watch Series 2 of Robot Wars!

I cant count as high as how many times that error has been posted as a screenshot on KuvatON. It has sort of worn out.

As for the new home page, I dont see blahblah liked video, I only see subsciption uploads there. Maybe its because none of my youtube freinds like any vids?

Youtube shot themselves in the foot Sniped themselves in the head when they changed the video viewer page to putting the info under the video. Since then, they just can't leave a damn thing alone.

Yep, since 2008 it seems that they can't leave their own website be.
And the REALLY stupid thing is that it seems that every time they change something, they make it worse  :rolleyes:

It really is the ancient rule of "If it isn't broke, don't fix it". I can watch videos and search for videos...let's leave it at that. I don't want Youtube to be facebook-overed, I can't stand the idea of social networking sites.

No, I think that the internet's most popular sites are full of idiots. Which is why everything on the most popular sites is slowly made more idiotic until it just doesn't work anymore.
