Youtube
it now OFFICIALLY SUCKS.
forced advertisements in front of videos? come on. the pop up during the video shit was annoying enough. i can understand this with hulu as they use actual copyritten shows but youtube? they don't allow that. that stopped around the time google bought it and they started blowing.
plus it seems that most videos MUST be watched in widescreen HD. which makes loading times stupid long.
so with this last update, youtube blows chunks. i've only been using it to watch machinima lately (due to machinima.com never seeming to completely load a video recently. and by "not completely load" i mean "the first three second sof the film only") however with crappier and crappier machinima coming out lately (maSHITima. term i made. you heard it hear first people.) i'm not even sure if its worth continuing watching.
also shot out to Josh. visit his new blog here!
edit: to all those who will be smartasses and say "well there is a way to shot ads off on youtube. simply opt out." i say falsities! i even installed the optout cookie and you know what? it doesn't stop them.
the only thing i found that works is setting your adobe flash settings for allowing no installation, and even then you will see the adobe flash program asking if you want to let youtube show you something at least twice a video.
