The Death of Youtube?? Redesign Coming

[teenofmyspace]

Dailymotion metacafe and zippcast are putting youtube to death. No love for youtube or any google sites. We dont even need them to search, we got bing and duckduckgo. Zippcast needs some tune up but their contact box is open for advertisers and people great with tech.

[567hinata]

i love when my lucky charms get stakery

[mysmilie]

I don't come onto YouTube to watch TV, that's what TV is for, to watch TV. I come on YouTube to watch video content made, and edited, by the YouTube community.

And it would be amazing if there was a Lucky Charms ad somewhere on this page...

[2011AeonFlux]

ey don't want the People to know the Truth they Want filter Conspiracy Related Videos and Political Attack Ad Videos. They Hate America and Hate American's to Exercise their Freedom. Fuck Youtube! They Want to Silence the voice of the Resistance. They better be ready for the fall of Youtube. Goodbye ol fools. Go back to Degrading yourselfs with the Immorality Tube and pretend the World isn't going to hell in 2012, doomsday is right around the Corner Youtube I will get my Revenge soon. Muhahaha

[2011AeonFlux]

I left my main channel after youtube violated my constitutional and internet rights, breaching our Contract. Censoring my Pro RonPaul and Anti Mick Romney Attack Ads. They Removed all my videos. now when I want to go to my favorite video uploads it says Removed by User. Make sure you spread the word about Painlesstragedy's Channel. Those @#%*%@# illuminazi sons of a bitches. I'm boycotting Youtube I suggest we ALL do and find a New Youtube and left this old dog die. Youtube is ran by the corps

[12bymax]

in the month of my birth

[SomeoneBeginingWithI]

John, you are currently symaltaniously advertising weightwatchers and loacal drainage experts. It is not working. DFTBA

[lanternofcain]

COME BACK TO MELBOURNE!!!

[wingardiumleviosaaah]

it's weird seeing this in 2012 and it's totally not how he's describing it.

[LMNOP1214]

Come to Philadelphia again. After I see you in New York in January, I'll only have to drive a half an hour to see you in Philly in April :D

[harrypotterrocks1762]

I HATE the new channel design. It's really boring, you can't put any pictures or anything up, and it's in a REALLY weird format. :(

[Klibbnisse]

... and then YouTube walked the complete opposite direction, with the new redesign we have nothing but videos from subscribed channels (with recommendations in a less important area).

[fdls4all]

Well it is FAIL according to me.

[crimsoncandycake]

if only they knew this redesign! :P

[Nomnomnomnomnom0]

@uiruu and yotube is a pornsite -_-

[uiruu]

The demise of the u in youtube? Does that make it Yotbe?

[Oranneko]

I love what I just noticed: there never is any advertisement before or during your videos. It is so amazing!

[yourworstnightmar231]

ok, you can't sell lucky charms but you could use your attempt to sell them to advertise for a rival company of lucky charms. paricularily one that makes healthy cereal

[Annabbyish]

And, i think you related lucky charms with twilight..

[Annabbyish]

Science science science !!Yay Austrailia!! science science science blah blah blah... This may be the most annoying thing I've heard all day, and I have been searching annoying stuff all day. That's sad.

[windpotato]

You know what's realy going to be the death of youtube? The audible ads. Can't watch a  freaking video when loud music or "DR. KATZ' wants to talk to me about surgery.

[CourierOfDreams]

There's a link next to browse for "movies" now.. what could this mean..

[cynthiayl12]

it's weird how much i love this intro.

[mark4851]

nerdfighter comments are awesome

[princessemiko]

Type TWO diabetes! jeeze XD (type one diabetic right here :P)

[zekeoman1]

"Now, let's continue this conversation....down below."

[PortalJumper98]

might as well be commercial tube

[koolkatkimina9]

I don't think you blinked at all in that video... :/ slightly weird that I noticed that...

[joey50557]

From the farther future:

It happened.

[TheJulieUh]

@joey50557 and nothing really changed in the end. 

[lotsoflaughs45]

if you dont wear pants .. how can there be anything in your pants.........

[iluvmypuddycat]

@lotsoflaughs45 Somewhere there must be a book called "Nothing"

by definition, nothing is in John's pants. Or maybe a book called 'Air'

[Julessftl]

I've just watched a music video and the rest of the screan was blanked out, no related videos, no comments, nothing! I was really worried that the black out thing had actually happened!! But apparently not! yayyy! :D

[TheAmazingAtheos]

Cosmic panda is about 75% of what he described, the next redesign will be exactly how he described it.

[lorddanteseriph]

If you want to block out everything else on the page, get rid of everything else on the page aka FULL SCREEN. You know, that one feature every video player has ever had since they stopped automatically going full screen?

[dumbledorerox98]

Right now it's Videos, Music, Shows, Trailers, and Live, and there's movies at the top :P

[dreamcutie32]

You can sell Luck Charms. Because now I want them.

[morgansword]

I believe in the little guy cause for one, we are the majority. The variety makes us who we are. I want my choice to be able to be there for others like myself to enjoy the freedom of choice. Its American

[OperationZeroProfit]

Remember when ads were on the top right corner next to the video? Where it doesn't bother you at all? Remember you could vote five stars? Remember the yellow subscribe button? Remember when your videos can actually be VISIBLE and be SEEN by millions of people? Remember when we could put any music we like in our videos, without a complaint? Remember when there was no Vevo? Operation: Zero Profit has initiated. Watch my video for more information.

[EmilyLikesBooks]

The Lucky Charms story...it sounds familiar ;P

[M00k64]

Advertisers are like, "We'd rather advertise next to Nicki Minaj, a very catchy yet grossly untalented entertainer, than John Green, a Printz Award winning, NYT best selling, Edgar Award winning author." Lawls

[clownfish000]

I'm actually really disappointed to watch this in 2011 and know that I missed a nerdfighter gathering IN MY OWN CITY.

[mark4851]

You make me proud to be a nerd

[EaKirstine]

@mark4851 I know the feeling! Nerdfighteria is awesome!

[pokecrazygal]

2:35 sry to sound bad but. TYPE 2 DIABETES!!!!! I got type 1 and it doesn't mean I'm unhealthy. there's a huge diff.

[pokecrazygal]

i had a craving for Lucky Charms at first. then you started describing Twilight....

[ReKrisB]

Lucky Charms = Edward Cullen?????? Thanks for clearing that one up, John XD. I don't like either, so this makes more sense now X3

[Muzlalilulelogreyfox]

I would be for this change since it would mae less adverts in the user made videos. Im used to seeing adverts while watching american dad (lol actually not since i live in the uk and american dad is on BBC3 so no adverts bt you get wat i mean) sad though that this didn't happen.

[Unkag3d]

John, Count Chocula is the vampire of cereals

[Narinye]

This has already happened with the full screen button.

lol

[DeadshotDivinity]

huzzah

[brendflakes]

511 people are big company advertisers

[nomnombunnies]

Here's what you need to do to sell Lucky Charms better than the commercials: eat them and have a box of them in the background while doing a video. EVERYONE WILL BUY THEM.

[LunaLaboratory]

I just went and bought Lucky Charms. FTW

[KrustyFrank27]

I would actually like that. All this white space is a waste of energy.

[jaytummy]

It hurts so bad that I became a nerdfighter a month after this was posted and I live in Philadelphia. PLEASE COME BACK.

[Sarutoke333]

I did like the feature that didn't dim everything but the video, but instead simply made the background black. Anyone else think that felt better on the eyes? When I'm on the computer, I sometimes get headaches because every single page has white backgrounds and it gets overwhelming after a while, since I'm on there practically all day for school. Black backgrounds also save energy, so if they could do this for more than just Earth Day, it'd be waaaay awesome!

[Narinye]

@Sarutoke333 yup, and the white backrounds give off so much reflection, by the time i get off the computer my eyes BURN

[MisterZombyWoof]

Subliminal Advertisement For Lucky Charms.

[Zairabear]

It looks like you are in future Hank's room.

[puppylover11396]

The Lucky Charms quote was definitely the best thing John Green has ever said. So awesome.

[danakaDENt]

Bones!!

[DarkEvilWorm002]

@danakaDENt In your pants

[mistyozzyrosie]

@gracefulnerd me too :)

[Mkato320]

WTF

[gracefulnerd]

Epic fail. I'm watching this on my iPhone, so the surrounding stuff is nonexistent until after you've finished watching the video!

[singlexfilexisxlove]

Man, he sure uses the word discourse a lot.

[masonansari]

I DONT CARE IF U CAN SELL LUCKYCHARMS OR NOT! WHAT DOES LUCKYCAHRMS HAVE TO DO WITH YOUTUBE ANYWAY!?!?!

[ginnyvideo]

lucky charms = twilight?

well, you've sold it to those people who like twilight at least...

[corebore13]

The reason youtube started is because of the users if you get rid of the users you get rid of youtube. Hulu is not superior to youtube, it can just make more money.

[totalgenius72]

This would be so much more awesome if the advertisement on this page right now were for Lucky Charms.

[Ncnk1]

I can tell you what i hate about google old hippie shit.

Link Google account to Youtube.

Layout is shit.

Google just sucks (Shitty american piece of shit im going to use bing, well that sucks big time too)

Ads every fucking where (Shitty 2:14 minutes video ads)

SME, Sony Music Entertainment, Vevo, WMG, and a hole shit of another.

Age rating.

And a hole bunch of other useless shit you cant use to anything.

[TheFreeman35]

@Ncnk1 well said !!! i have tried uploading a song that plays perfectly ok on my computer and when uploaded here it sounds shite. just WTF is YT's problem ???? corporate cocksucking scum..this shit carrys on and i am closing my account and will not be coming back for ANY reason.the lot of it can go fuckn suck arse.

[SteveCarras]

@Ncnk1

Hulu will possibly intrude and just have Justin Bieber talentless crap.

[SamPD2]

@SteveCarras At this point, Hulu is superior to YouTube.

It was a corperate enterprise first. So really nothing to complain.

But this site used to have a base where we, the users created the content.

But now that is in the past.

[FurryVegetables]

Now that's the way to get the attention of advertisers! Share with them that you are not wearing pants! ch-chick NERDFIGHTERS!

[jazlyn777]

how can you not sell lucky charms? Lucky Charms have rainbows...and God, you love rainbows.

[StubbsePegBee]

my dad came in as soon as he said "I'm not wearing any pants" considering i live in England......

[Lightwader3338]

this is a parody on spongebob's without you:

a website, is a website. no matter, how it looks.

and stupid vids, are stupid vids on the web

a faggot is a faggot no matter what he does.

everything i would give, it would be the same!

this youtube is empty and lonely!

its just a little point (just a little point!)

with google!

copy and paste this on every video

originaly made by Lightwader3338

[Alamantus]

From the future:

This change never happened! Hooray!

[Dramaismyife]

@Alamantus Yay!

[roboninjapx]

lol mini wheats is advertised on this vid

[technoboylovers]

I loved all that talk on Lucky Charms.

[yougotnopancakemix18]

Just because I feel like sharing, I looked up "tube" on google and the first few results were porn sites.

[CanNotBeScene]

althought it made a poor advertisement, the lucky charms rant has now been written on my wall

[TheHatOfDestiny]

How can advertisements not advertise on normal videos??

I've heard lucky charms mentioned in quite a lot of videos but I've never eaten them.

Because I've heard them mentioned in many videos I WANT to eat them.

If I saw an advertisement for lucky charms on one of these videos, I would ignore it.

So the power of the slight mention with out completely shoving it in your face is more effective. TADAA Advertisers, have fun with that.

[mathias921]

-1,

blocked

and fuck you for accepting adds.

[archerofyail]

@mathias921

first of all this from almost 2 years ago, secondly if they're not interrupting you watching the video and they keep youtube running why do you not like them?

[ginnyvideo]

so lucky charms is like twilight: the cereal? accept better looking?

[beckbin62]

actually, you don't get diabetes from eating too much sugar it's from not having enough insulin, which is a hormone that regulates the glucose levels in the bloodstream. go bio nerds!

[TalaDarthiris]

What do you mean you fail as advertising Lucky Charms? I laughed myself into being hungry and now I want Lucky Charms. Darn cravings.

[delmanestry90]

this is the first video that got me addicted to the Vlogbrothers.

[Tsugo582]

come back to Australia. Please?

[kayy9Zsw]

i always give a green thumb in the first three seconds of the video, because i know it's gonna be awesome <3

[andreapearl23]

lets continue this conversation....

down below..

[camrcam2]

lol, u said luckycharms like 30 times. they dont need an add on ur vid when u say their products name so many times.

[arachnophile01]

@morganh069 Please, Kiki, explain your motivation for desiring my death based on not reposting your comment. By the way, I know you can read this due to the fact that you a) know whether or not I reposted this five times b) accomodate yourself to my timezones midnight c)know exactly whom I have feelings of romantic longing for, and d) have time to either force the hand of said person or kill me. Please reply, oh spooky rape victim ghost.

[EverythingUseless]

as my second comment ill say that i would rather watch this than tv anyways. hulu is tv, youtube is like 999999999999999999999999999999­99999999999 times better.

[EverythingUseless]

youtube wont make a dime off of me if they turn into hulu. ill find another sight to put my videos like the rest of the internet. please read this youtube :D

[benhendershott1990]

youtube should change its name from youtube 2 AdTube because that's what it is now

[KyleRayKeith]

ITs REally Odd And Curious if any one else has this PROBLEM??...I CAN NOT VOTE up or vote down a comment (on any page) ...I choose it but then count dosnt change and says I have already voted and cant do anymore with nothing being done..my opinion is DEF turned off on here as far as VOTES and what not..ANY 1 else have this "PROBLEM"??

[fluffymcgizz]

@pepperannziggi Mmhhmm.

And yet you have a youtube.

Youtube is an ''idiot's nest!''

Which makes you an idiot. Think before you speak ;]

[TCHill19]

@fluffymcgizz you say that and you have a youtube. Dumbass you need to think before you speak. and yes im stupid for having a youtube as well but unlike you ya fuckstick, i admit im a dumbass.

[BrenasaurusRexx]

Hank , you make me want Lucky Charms. But not really..

[gbnnn]

would you all rather have the current youtube, or put the you back in youtube but have a ton more ads?

[zoemonkim]

well im happy it didint happen even tho it kinda did

[LegendShark]

well this didn't happen

[abarna01]

geez laweeze, stop staring into my soul! you only looked away from the camera 4 times!

[hyperhumana]

I am furious!

[pinknerdfighters]

I just ate some frozen yogurt and was really disappointed. I thought it would be thick and creamy like custard but it was all silky and sweetly disgusting! This is a warning to all nerdfighters don't eat frozen yogurt!

[Mriceefreeze]

HOLY SHEWT!....John! thank you!!!! by watching your video i guess i can now upload videos longer than 15 minuetes :D!!! thank you john and a special thanks to hank...for being there the whole time

[BecauseJustBecause]

Lucky Charms... where have I heard of that book?

[CatHellsky]

HOORAY! I don't eat a cereal that reminds me of a series of books that have done excessively better than they should have done. I love the way you explained the cereal.

[quizzas22]

URRRRRRGH JOHN! why can't you sell lucky charms?! *gets mad at you* *anger waves*

[NesanXIII]

...and then YouTube just fucked itself over AGAIN.

[undergroundjackal]

@Bebexoxox123 fightin a jb fan? puuulease..

[itstotallysarahyo]

This video actually made me want Lucky Charms.

I see what you did there, John.

[ryutatsu2]

This made me want to buy Lucky Charms.

[TheShootingCupcake]

Lucky Charms are made of awesome

[xVictimOfADownx1]

doesn't that mean that this website will become the most hypocritical website ever? it seems that what youtube is changing the website to, only helps ONE group of people, and you can skip adds by pressing F5 so whats the fucking point? someone will probably make another site completely if this happens, majority of videos also aren't about making money

[MegaKevin198]

you werent wearing pants? me too

[xoxoKevinJonasxoxo]

I have the same dictionary as John green <3

[cobchob]

@xoxoKevinJonasxoxo i have the same dog :P

[Skorphie]

The vampire cereal / lucky charm / twilight metaphor got me kinda confused...

[rikko338]

Did you just accuse the youtube community of getting furious?! How dare you. I'm going to go and blog about how angry this makes me, then i'm going to post several angry non-sensical comments!!

[Skorphie]

@rikko338 YOu IDiot!!!!! You have no right to get angry at anybody, you poisonous hunch backed toad! I'm going to start a long and boring flame war with you now!!!

Lol.

[rikko338]

@Skorphie Thank god you said lol at the end there because I was about to bust of the grammatical suicide and go all 12-year-old troll on yo ass.

[Blacckkfire]

youtube is for communiy.... not adds

[UrSoMeanBoss]

502 people were disappointed that he wasn't pointing at his pants

[13564871]

squirrels

[TimeLordsFTW]

@Bebexoxox123 Whoa there Giant squid of anger, calm yourself. I love Bones too, but Television shows aren't supposed to be on youtube, they're supposed to be on TV. Some people don't like Crime shows, and that's their opinion. So sit yourself down at the TV, and watch Bones all you want while we enjoy John and Hanks epicness :D

[Yanna21TSR]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH­!!!!!!!!!!

Why are you so bad at selling lucky charms!!!!!!

[SlipperehPuppeh]

@Bebexoxox123 Well... Aren't you cool?

[EmmaLuffsYou]

Just so you know, this was posted over a year ago, so chill you biscuts.

[singurheartout569]

No offence, but I love Bones!

[poi9035]

u can't last a round and u suck fo saying that

[MrDiablolord]

don't be stupid you tube isn't ending! you have to be a retard to preach the end of the internet's most popular video website doom sayers go suck it

[astroaidan]

@usukforlife2

It's nerdfighterz

And were proud of the status

[Bosoxgalaxy]

wait if hes not wearing pants...... WHAT DO WE PUT AT THE END OF BOOK TITLES

[jmal116]

Pants? Who needs pants?

[TheWarnerSister]

For what it's worth, John, if they advertised Lucky Charms on one of your videos I would be way more likely to eat them.

[RoamingD]

I don't see any ads anyway. Adblocker XD

[Cinnabeast]

I dunno... I kinda want Lucky Charms now. Mostly in that nostalgic sense, but y'know.

[usuk4life2]

why do you keep saying nerd... i prefer intellectual bad ass

[TheDuckielova]

@usuk4life2 intellectual bad ass fighter ???

i like it :)

[Gamez1985]

@usuk4life2

Me too. You see I love Pokemon and beat up nerds in middle school. You can like stuff that's nerdy but not like like an idiot.

TO THE VIDEO POSTER: Furthermore I called him an idiot in another (VERY) boring video, but other than the first few seconds (where you REALLY needed to shut up and get on with it) I want to retract that and I would say you have some REAL talent for comedy, and a seriously good head on your shoulders. I would have to agree with what you say here 100%

[Gamez1985]

@usuk4life2

Also, nerd means immature dork. Liking silly things doesn't make you a nerd. As I said before I love Pokemon and was a bully in middle school. A guy I knew robbed a liqueur store before and he STILL reads X-Men comics. You wouldn't look a dangerous gangster in the face and call him a nerd. I wouldn't. (No I'm not sounding cool, it wasn't me.) The point just stands true.

There are nerds. But most people dont realize nerd means "dont like me" not "I like different things than you."

[xMysteryxMewx]

@Gamez1985 What do mean "immature"?

Being a nerd means your intellegent, and by the way, most nerds are actually accepting of people, so if anything, a nerd is more mature than an average person

[DarkEvilWorm002]

@xMysteryxMewx Sir, I'm sorry to report to you that you're missing a 'you' on YouTube.

[klanko64]

@xMysteryxMewx *You're. How ironic.

[Maoszman]

@xMysteryxMewx You aren't accepting of people. To be "mature" you have to accept average people. Who don't exist.

Whose criteria is the average based upon? What is "average"?

Average is a criteria based upon prejudice.

[ComedyKing20934]

@Gamez1985 hey man dont diss us, we are people with a higher iq, PROUD, and want to yell, IM A NERD AND IM PROUD, we made everything you see, from tv to cars. We are just like everyday people with the thought, hey im a nerd and if you dont like it then i can bend over and you can kiss my ass

[Gamez1985]

@ComedyKing20934

lol You are taking my comment out of context if you feel insulted. I'm referring to the difference between someone who likes something of all ages or with a high intelligence, versus someone with no intelligence at all, who loves nothing but Harry Potter. It's not what you like, its about how you act or who you are

You wasted a minute of your life assuming something and were wrong. If you have something you have to defend then YOU think there's something wrong with you not I

[schok51]

@Gamez1985 Look up the wikipedia article on "Nerd".Basically ,a nerd is someone who have a passionate interest that set him apart from the others and who have no desire to conform to "normality",to be popular(by conforming to standards) or to be "mainstream"(to set his interest in what most people like).I don't think any negative traits such as "immature" and "dorky"(although this word can also be defined positively) are part of the definition of nerd.

[InvaderWakkoReborn]

I ate Lucky Charms while watching this!

Don't judge me...

[renirapper]

shut the fuck up punk

[Nyanasama]

I live for comments! D:

[CheeseGenius]

It would be okay if there was a channels tab, now i have to enter /channels in my search engine, the TV shows in UK are good like Peep Show (Mitchell and Webb), Fonejacker and so on, but the movies are shit...

[aiefo7]

i want some lucky charms now...

[KamilaDewhurst]

I hope you have underwear on -.-

[KamilaDewhurst]

Imeem was awesome. When imeem was around youtube was my second favorite. And look now! I'm always on youtube because there's no imeem!

[MyImmortalLifex]

i don't understand why ppl watch this videos.. so boring

[Empep12]

@MyImmortalLifex WELL, you need to have watched them from Day One in order to fully understand the awesome that is nerdfiteria. You may not understand why i like this, well name anything you like.  Maybe i don't like that? I'm not going to tell YOU that whatever you like is boring. So please Stfu and go watch waterskiing squirrels, will ya?

[MyImmortalLifex]

@Empep12 rofl relax

i just think it's boring to see this old people telling about their "cool" life

[Empep12]

@MyImmortalLifex

i am relaxed. You must have read "angry". Well i was more like a "relaxed angry", lol. If you don't like it, go watch sothing else. Leave us alone please. :)

[WaterLily331]

i HONESTLY kinda want lucky charms now...
